+1. If a new word is *invented*, it doesn't necessarily mean that it'll 
survive. Moreover, "dent" is not a real word, it is something used only on one 
website.

It would be possible to deal with "dent" or "tweet" in Romanian, as we 
currently do with "blog" and many other words, but it would be nice to have 
more common words.
