Remarks about the translation
I received this text of a romanian friend
Sorry but no idea what its about
but i think the words are abbreviated

british

In understandable Romanian, according to a native speaker, text would be :
"Acum venim, păpuşă. Dar unde parchez?"

Hi iepurica,

It's not very usual to address someone as "doll" in English. Could that be changed into "darling" or "honey"?

Yes, I can. I have a question, thou: the words you mentioned, can they be used in a impersonal way? I see "darling" and "honey" as words addressed to someone close. The expression "doll" can be used by the Romanians like a verbal habit also when they talk to a strange person. Would it still be proper in this case?

Well, to use with a stranger would be better something like: man, boy, dude, mate, pal, bud, buddy...(all used usually to address men)

"doll" sounded like the addressee was a woman, that's why I suggested "darling" or "honey"

Thank you for the explanation.

I've got an idea. I'll use sweatheart, it's closer to the Romanian word. Is it ok?

Since you chose "sweetheart" I wonder if "dear" wouldn't be more neutral.

You're the boss, "dear" it is.

Thank you again.
