About Romanian for English speakers
Romanian and English are both written in the Latin alphabet, so you can start reading straight away.
The US Foreign Service Institute estimates that English speakers need about 24–30 weeks of full-time study to reach professional working proficiency in Romanian. Regular conversation with native speakers is one of the best ways to fill those weeks.
Romanian is related to Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese.
How the exchange works
- Say what you speak and what you're learning. Talkabout shows you people who speak Romanian natively and are learning English.
- Write to someone. Take turns: some messages in Romanian, some in English, so you both get to practise.
- Fix each other's messages. Suggest a correction on any message and your partner sees exactly what changed. You choose how much you want corrected.
Safe by default
Talkabout is for adults only. Photos and contact details unlock only after you've both written to each other, nobody can flood your inbox, and favourites stay private unless you both choose each other.
You can block or report anyone from the chat. Everyone agrees to the community guidelines, and moderators tell you which rule was broken when they act on a report.
