English term or phrase: Wow
'Wow!' she exclamed making no attempt to hide her admiration.

Now how do you say WOW in Romanian? Romanians do use (in Romanian) 'Wow' and 'Ups' and 'yikes' and 'OK'. But I would like to find a Romanian word for it. Any thoughts? Thanks

Explanation:
Asa as zice in limba romana ca suna mai neaos. Sigur ca stiu ca ne-am englezit cu totii si zicem si uau. Nu este nici o problema, dar parca este prea adolescentin si pana se impamanteneste, asa cum ne zicea proful nostru de LRC la facultate, tot un barbarism ramane.

Da, sigur, si sper ca este un text cat mai recent ca data.

Si ca aroma generala este mai slang... Pentru ca altfel aceste barbarisme vulgarizeaza efectul general. Prea e ca la televizor. Asta este parerea mea si-mi pare rau ca am inceput sa gasim tot mai rar echivalentele din limba romana in favoarea unor cuvinte recente care, etc. etc. etc. Scuze, aceasta este parerea sau daca vreti "feelingul"meu. Na, ca am folosit si eu unul....

Asker: Personajul care spune 'wow' in textul meu e o adolescenta, deci cred ca o sa zic 'uau'. 'Grozav' si 'super' sunt solutii foarte bune, multumesc.
