And just to help you more about your english here are my corrections to your above statements:
I wasn't going to offence you...-OFFEND is more appropiate.
Indeed, it was the only book which said me that. - it was the only book THAT STATED that.

Ah, so Raluca's a Romanian name, then; I was wondering  .. Anyway, in a spirit of helpfulness, here's some further fine-tuning to your generally excellent English: English is not my native language, I am from Romania, but I have always been very fond of it! I just love it and love it ! Lol. I came here so I can help others and also (to) learn more about English. I graduated from university here and I should soon start teaching in schools, so this site is actually very helpfull helpful to me !
So, you think my English is very good too, huh?  Well, I should hope so; I've been speaking, hearing, reading and writing it for long enough.

Thank you again for the fine-tuning !! :P So you know now where my name comes from, it was actually the name of a princess sometimes in our history (aka princess Ralu) . I must admit i was curious enough about your name here, it is difficult for me to read it !! Now that's some learning!!!

Okay, I'll tell you; yizhivika is my transliteration of the Russian word for blackberry, i.e. ежевика.......
