Re: [Cz-L] czernowitz-l digest: January 14, 2014

Cornel, how old were you when you left Cz?  Romanian was such an easy language; words were pronounced as written. Not like German or English.  We even had the three "a" spellings for the pronunciation - there was "ah" (I don't know how to spell the other two pronunciations that came with the little half moon over the "a" or the little roof top. If you pronounced the three "a" pronunciations in a row you created something musical.  Then there was the little wiggle under the "t" to make it a "tz" otherwise it gets the hard "t" and now I can't recall if we had it under the "C" too.  Or was the "C" followed by a vowel always "ch" as in Italian? It was odd, after not hearing Romanian for over 50 years (and having picked up a smattering of Italian and Spanish) Romanian sounded foreign to me - somewhat Slavic in sound.  You would have had to have had Romanian in school.
