I am not, my wife is (a native speaker of Catalan Spanish) She tried listening to a Romanian program on TV once (a talk show) and said she couldn't understand what they were saying, only a word or...
One has to be harsh sometimes.
Can you read at all? Now, what did I say? Why don't you go back to my post and re-read it? Where did I say we said "булка" for "батон", eh? We use "булка" for very specific kinds of white bread...
