I love germans, but sorry the language sucks.
For my information? Yeah, right - I speak French and Italian so you don't need to tell me. The German verbs are simple - the verbs in Latin languages are more difficult. The subjunctive, etc.

But my perspective is different. I'm from Scandinavia so I understand the core of the German language - whereas you, as a native Rumanian, would have a much easier time with, say, Italian or Spanish.

I'm trying to learn Russian - now, there's a difficult language...
