One of my best friends was born in Romania and I always make her speak it. The extent of my Romanian-speaking capabilities is 'Servus!' Which is either 'Hello' or 'Thank You.'

In Latin, servus means 'slave'.
So no need to worry, Neo!

it's not my actual name but for easyness people can just call me violet! i'm sure it'd get shortened to that anyway!
it's rather more interesting than my name, it's very stereotypically english and dull!
