In another sentence... (the one about the fruits on the table) I wrote sour and it was marked wrong as it should have been bitter. Now I write bitter and it was marked wrong and told me that it should be sour. :)

My answer to your question is probably too late. I write it anyhow since someone else might fall for the same trap....

There are two adjectives that look very similar in Romanian

• acru = sour - the taste of lemon, vinegar etc

• amar = bitter - the taste of grapefruit.

I will put both declinations here beneath. The problem is that if you are coming from a Spanish background you use the word 'acre' for bitter which is conflicting with Romanian...

In SA Spanish, bitter was amargo and sour was ácido growing up. I know that SA Spanish is often different than Spain Spanish, but l find it interesting that it is actually closer to Romanian in this case.
