Abstract

According to a Eurobarometer survey on attitudes to multi-language, nearly half of Romanians say they can converse in another language. English is the foreign language that Romanians speak most, followed by French, German and Spanish. In recent years Romanians have progressed in language learning, especially young people, although teachers recognize that the Romanian education system has to make some changes. Beyond the statistics and polls, it is obvious that in recent years the language learning has become important for many Romanians.
