Hello from Romania
 
Hello,

I grow many orchids (at least, for my available space) and I love them very much!

I have the common types and also some botanical species.

I'm looking to learn a lot of things here, I see that you have a GREAT forum:D

I'm from Romania.
Best regards;)

Wow Romania! Welcome to the board! Glad you could join us. Is it true that Romanian is a romance language and not Slavic?

bogdan 02-09-2007 12:37 PM

Hello,

The Romanian language is a latin language, but it also has some slavic influences (the Latin has the highest percent, after that is comes the Slavic influences, much little) )
Since 106 AD (after 2 wars betwen Dacia and the Roman Empire : 101-102, 105-106) we've been colonized by the Roman Empire and mix our Dacic language (the teoritory was named Dacia - we also have a car brand named like that :lol: ) with their Latin language. The process was called "Romanization" ("romanizare" in Romanian). The romans lived here until 271 AD (in the time of Aurelian Emperor), when they left the teritory, leaving a new language and a totally new culture.

An interesting history:dumb:

And we are very behind in the orchid market, because of the 45 years of comunism, when there weren't any orchids on the market here:shock:
At least this is what I know.
Hopefully I didn't lived in those horible times:cheer:

Regards
