And I though it was French

I was a bit bedazzled to find out the Bucharest expeditious good-bye is  coming from German, or even worse, Hungarian! Furthermore, it’s baby talk. But the surprises are not so surprising, when, keeping with the interjection, we think of the Italian ciao Timishoareans  use for greeting you hello.

  1. Hm. Si polonezii spun pa, am auzit-o pe Agata. Iar la Viena se spune baba, unde nemtii (si austriecii) nu fac mare diferenta intre b si p. E international, no.

  2. I always say “ceau” instead of “salut.”
