Why learn Romanian?

Let us proudly mention "famous non-native learners of Romanian whom we natives, teachers or otherwise, see on TV, hear on the radio, and feel greatly impressed by: when the Ambassador of Japan gives a speech in perfect Romanian, when an Austrian CEO makes a public statement in perfect Romanian, we know they respect us, they understand us, they value us, and we give nothing less in return. To them, as well as to us, whether in business or arts, Romanian is mutual trust.”

His Excellency Mr Paul Brummell, former UK Ambassador - press conference in Romanian on the occasion of IHB's 15th anniversary
