    Sorry if you tried to contact me today Pasquale - I thought my Skype would ring me on my phone but it didn't ring, so I'm not sure if you were busy or if I was using Skype incorrectly.

    I don't read Japanese but from the context of what you are saying I would say 'I'm going to pick my friend up', which is how you described it anyway. It would be better than 'to meet' because 'to meet' suggests you are meeting each other, which doesn't sound right if they are very drunk.

    It means a definite commitment to have work/a contract. If something is 'legally binding' it means to the two parties are committed and cannot change their minds (they are metaphorically 'tied together').

    I assumed it was the ship (ships and boats are referred to as 'she') as she was being hauled up after a long voyage to have her barnacles removed.

    Two questions! 1) What is the difference between 'se zice' and se spune'? 1) What is the difference between 'se zice' and se spune'? și 2) Cum se spune 'What is the difference between --- and ---?' în limba română? Mersi.

    Does the stress move on a word when it has a suffix? In spoken Romanian, when 'ul' is added to the end of the word, does the stress move? I'm going to be saying 'câinelu' in a few hours and I've never heard it! (Scuzați-mă - vorbesc putin român așa vorbesc limba engleză. Îmi pare rău!)

    I scored 11/21 'Intermediate'.  That's the second time in a week I've scored 'Intermediate' on a Romanian language test and that's just by looking at what the words remind me of, looking at patterns, trying to work out the context (e.g. the Jupiter and Pluto one), and just plain guessing!  I think there was just one that I actually knew!

    I still remember snatches of the Spanish songs we were taught at school (as well as trabalinguas/tongue twisters!), and I thought it was a great way to learn, so today I've been trying to find some music I like (and have a chance of following!) in Romanian on YouTube. 

     

    So far I've found this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQAwlYHvwGE&index=2&list=PL-wzD5mHB86Kneh96gI6m-NgXK2S1Xf3H

     

    I like many of the traditional ones I've heard too.

     

    If you know some slowish ones I might be able to join in with please do post them!

     

    Mulțumesc,

    Norm
