Teresa spotted this in Bucharest. She said the name translates to "rainbow" and I guess the quotation marks make sense, since everything I see here is white.
It is. Not only in Romanian, but, according to wikipedia, also in Estonian, German, Hungarian, Icelandic, Lithuanian, Macedonian, and several others: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-English_usage_of_quotation_marks
Is it normal to have the first mark be down low in that language?
