Translation Best Practices

Use formal 'dumneavoastră' for general customer communication and business contexts, reserving 'tu' for very specific, informal, or youth-oriented campaigns.
Adapt currency (RON) and measurement units (metric system) to local standards for clarity and trust.
Ensure product descriptions are detailed, highlighting benefits and unique selling points, as Romanians value thorough information.
Localize all marketing copy, including calls to action, to resonate culturally and emotionally with the Romanian audience.
Pay close attention to the correct use of Romanian diacritics (ă, â, î, ș, ț) for professionalism and proper search engine indexing.
