    Andreea: Ce îmi place cartierul acesta!
    Masanobu: Da? Ce îți place la el?
    Andreea: Are bibliotecă, supermarket, poștă, un parc și stație de metrou.
    Masanobu: Ah, înseamnă că este foarte convenabil.
    Andreea: Da, este convenabil, dar este și foarte liniștit. Noaptea nu este gălăgie.
    Masanobu: Cu ce mergi în centru de obicei?
    Andreea: Iau autobuzul și apoi metroul și durează doar douăzeci de minute.
    Masanobu: Ce norocoasă ești!

    Masanobu: What do you usually ride to go downtown?
    Andreea: I take the bus and then the subway and it only takes 20 minutes.
    Masanobu: You're so lucky!

    Ziua Sfântului Andrei este celebrată pe 30 noiembrie.
    Este o sărbătoare legală în România, ceea ce înseamnă că marea majoritate a oamenilor au liber de la serviciu sau de la școală, iar băncile, birourile guvernamentale și marea majoritate a întreprinderilor private sunt închise.
    Sfântul Andrei a fost fratele Sfântului Petru și primul discipol pe care Iisus l-a chemat.
    El este, de asemenea, sfântul ocrotitor al României, așadar, el este centrul atenției în cadrul unei mari sărbători.
    Există multe superstiții legate de Ajunul Sfântului Andrei în România.
    De exemplu, unii cred că cei ce lucrează în această sărbătoare vor avea un an nefavorabil.
    Există și câteva superstiții premonitorii legate de fetele care vor să își găsească viitorul soț.
    Multe fete pun 41 de boabe de grâu sub pernă, la ora culcării, iar dacă visează peste noapte că cineva este pe cale să le fure grâul, se presupune că aceasta înseamnă că se vor căsători în anul următor.
    În unele cazuri, tinerele pun o ramură de busuioc dulce sub pernă în loc de grâu și, iarăși, dacă visează că cineva vrea să fugă pe ascuns cu ramura de busuioc, aceasta înseamnă că se vor căsători în curând.
    În unele zone din România, tinerele aprind o lumânare de la Paște și o duc la o fântână, la miezul nopții.
    Apoi ele îl roagă pe Sfântul Andrei să le lase să îl zărească pe bărbatul cu care se vor mărita.
    Unii oameni îl invocă pe Sfântul Andrei să-i împiedice pe lupi să îi atace, pentru că se spune că lupii pot devora orice animal vor în Ajunul Sfântului Andrei și că, de asemenea, ei vorbesc cu oamenii.
    Totuși, se mai spune că orice om va auzi un lup vorbindu-i, va muri.

    St. Andrew's Day is observed on November 30.
    It's a public holiday in Romania, which means most people are off work or school as banks, government offices, and many private businesses are closed.
    St. Andrew was St. Peter's brother and the first disciple Jesus called.
    He is also Romania's patron saint, so he is the cynosure of a major holiday.
    There are many superstitions associated with St. Andrew's Eve in Romania.
    For example, some believe that those who work on the holiday will have an inauspicious year.
    Also there are several premonitory superstitions dealing with girls finding their future husbands.
    Many young women place 41 wheat grains under their pillow at bedtime, and if they have a dream overnight that there's someone on their way to pilfer the grains, then it supposedly means they will be married the next year.
    In some cases, young women put a sweet basil branch under their pillow instead of grains, and once again if they dream that someone is going to abscond with the branch, it means they will get married soon.
    In some areas of Romania, young women light an Easter candle and take it to a fountain at midnight.
    Then they solicit St. Andrew to ask him to let them descry the man they will marry.
    Also, some people invoke St. Andrew to deter wolves from attacking them because it's said that wolves can gobble down any kind of animal they want to on St. Andrew's Eve and also speak to humans.
    However, it's also said that any person who hears a wolf talk to him will die.
