Romanian language

She came today and did a good job.
It seems that she has 2 young children in Romania living with her mother. Husband? and young brother here.
The best thing was that when she left she smiled and said " me you Mum here".

I was once an au pair in France. This thread is bringing back bad memories. I was very young and my French was school only. The Concierge at the apartment block was impatient with me and called me "Stupide" which was one word I understood.
I was sent to the shop to buy furniture polish for example.
I came back with the wrong thing. No google translate in those days.

Good luck with your Romanian. I'm sure it will be fine. She probably knows how to clean much better than many a local.

Isn't it a Romance language?
If you did Latin at school that could help.

My friend had a cleaner (English) who polished the bath with Mr Sheen and my friend nearly had an accident when she went to use it, it was so slippy!

Balkan country?
Oh, more difficult, as that is quite different.
