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").
Comparison of Portuguese and Spanish thousand years. One of the most noticeable early differences between them concerned the result of the stressed vowels of Latin: As vowel length ceased to be distinctive in the transition from Latin to Romance, the stressed vowels and became "ie" and "ue" in Spanish whenever they were short (Latin → Spanish "piedra" 'stone'; Latin → Spanish "muere" "he dies"). Similar diphthongizations can be found in other Romance languages (French "pierre", Italian "pietra", Romanian "piatră"; French "meurt", Italian "muore", Romanian "moare"), but in Galician-Portuguese these vowels underwent a qualitative change instead (Portuguese/Galician "pedra", "morre"), becoming lower, as also happened with short
