Almost everybody among my friends used the German street name. This was a
common practice until people were allowed to leave the Soviet Czernovitsy
and proceed to Romania.

Mimi reminded us that 25 years after Czernowitz was annexed to Romania, she
still knew the street names, including the one she lived on, only in German.

My mother Erica was the same (with one or two exceptions). And so, 95 years
after, am I.

To give an example of how little Romanian we knew, consider the fact that
25 years after Czernowitz was annexed to Romania, I still knew the street
names, including the one I lived on, only in German.
