> (Dave) Sorry!  I actually meant Balkan influence!  I'm not an expert on
Rumanian, but what I've studied I know that there are Greek-Balkan
influences in the grammar.  Such as the lack of a "true" infinitive form
as still exists in other Latin languages, a trait shared by Modern Greek. <<


Sorry too for my being dim-witted :(
Yes, this shared (syntactical) feature seems to be the base for speaking
of "Balkan-type" languages (such as Greek, Romanian, Bulgarian,
Serbo-Croatian - sorry for making them one language ;) -, Albanian, but
not Hungarian!), e.g. Rom.: "vreau sã cânt" vs. e.g. Ital.: "vorrei
cantare"). Yet, are there still others?? (Sorry for this OT)
