>>Disgusting! Romanian subtitles without diacriticals!
>
>Hrm... Did the subtitles make any sense,
I don't speak romanian, but it's a lot like any other romance language - spoiled latin in the base, with a good smattering of slavic or hungarian words as spice. Just pick a random article on wikipedia and then look for romanian version of the text, like
https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programare_orientat%C4%83_pe_obiecte and try to find the percentage of words without diacriticals. Or a whole sentence without them.
The few lines I saw were, I guess, good romanian... but imagine english where text underwent strtran(txt, "ch", "c"), strtran(txt, "sh", "s"), strtran(txt, "th", "t") and a few other unimportant modifiers removed.

That's brilliant! I'm amazed that someone finally did that! I'll play it bit by bit just for kicks over the weekend :).
