Slavic influence on Romanian such as "suflet" ("soul") copy the logic of the Slavic word "душа", and the original Latin "anima" shifted its meaning to "inimă" ("heart"). Other examples include "lună" (meaning "month" and "the moon") and "lume" (originally "light"), used in the sense of "the world". Certain expressions (such as "din topor", "unrefined") also tend to be similar to their Slavic equivalents: "топорный = грубый". Another feature of modern Romanian which has resulted from contact with Slavic speakers is the formation of numerals from 11 to 20. For instance, "unsprezece" ("eleven") is based on three components ("un+spre+zece", "one above [from Latin "super"] ten").
