Features: This manual compiles approximately 30,000 common Romanian surnames and given names, along with their Chinese translations, for reference by those engaged in foreign affairs, international studies, and translation work. The phonetic transliterations of names in this manual, where syllables are identical, strive for systematic and standardized Chinese characters. However, some long-standing and widely accepted translations in China, such as Ceau?escu and ?tefan, are retained without alteration. Romania has two major minority groups: the Hungarians and the Germans. This manual also includes their commonly used names, transliterated in Hungarian and German phonetics. For ease of retrieval, the surnames and given names in this manual are not categorized and are arranged in alphabetical order according to the Romanian alphabet.
