We would say "THE Leu is the currency of Romania". You cannot omit the first definite article.
(Now corrected - thank you.)
Leul este si moneda bulgariei
The Leu in Romania and the Lei in Moldova. The Lion and the Lions?
Both are called leu. Lei is the plural.
i know x.x
Not Euros and cents then?
Romania is not in the Eurozone. Given that the EC just put Romania under a scrutiny program because they're running too much debt - joining the Eurozone is probably not in the cards any time soon. There's also the issue of corruption.
But we're not here to discuss politics, are we?
No, we are special...we can't give up our plastic money :)
"The currency of Romania is the leu" should be accepted!
Or the second. I didn't have the option of any definite articles for my answer.
