First Things First: The Romanian Alphabet

cluj autumn

I don’t know about you, but for me the beginning of autumn will always be about starting school (yes, even many many years after graduation 😉 ). So what better a time to start with our first Romanian lesson?

The Romanian alphabet is pretty similar to the English one, except some tricky letters with “accents”, or more precisely “diacritics”, which we pronounce differently from the rest. Here’s a nice visual:

The letters in green are the diacritics. Here’s a little pronunciation guide:

I promise to be back soon with audio material, as well as some examples!

Until then, have fun rehearsing 😉

See you soon,
