In regards to speaking Rumanian, I will add my two penny worth:I was born i=
n the Romanian period. We spoke German at home and with family.When we went=
 to market, some Romanian, some Ukrainian..As=C2=A0I went to school I had t=
o speak Romamnian.I was , I thought, fluent in Romanian. However, when in S=
outh America, where I lived for 10 years, I forgot Rumanian. Little by litt=
le my Spanish came first and slowly my Romanian was gone. I still could und=
erstand a very little, but this is questionable.Felix=20

I was having coffee the other day at a kosher restaurant in London. There
were 2 Romanian non jewish women sitting next to me. We got chatting and I
mentioned that my family had originally come from Romania as well. She
asked where, I said Czernowitz. Indignantly she replied that is not
Romania. I replied well it once was but thought to myself you should be so
lucky to have it.
