Even if Romanian was not explictely nominated, I took a look. It seems to me like there is an unusual concentration of potentially offensive words (3/50 images). They're mild, but I would still avoid them.
The images are in question are: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i2af7xvn4y593gc/IGgbDtSJWS/captchas/ro#lh:null-im... https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i2af7xvn4y593gc/IGgbDtSJWS/captchas/ro#lh:null-im... https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i2af7xvn4y593gc/IGgbDtSJWS/captchas/ro#lh:null-im...
Also, this image does not contain 2 real words (or I can't make them out for some reason): https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i2af7xvn4y593gc/IGgbDtSJWS/captchas/ro#lh:null-im...
This one seems to contain 3 words: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/i2af7xvn4y593gc/IGgbDtSJWS/captchas/ro#lh:null-im...
Some words are also present in more than one image. Is this ok from a security POV?

We're trying to make our "are you a computer or a human?" tests (CAPTCHAs) on our wikis more usable. Specifically, we want to offer the test in lots of languages, not just English. So we need to check whether people can read the non-English images.
We're looking for people who know Bengali, Cherokee, Gujarati, Hindi, Marathi, Sanskrit, Malayalam, Sinhala/Sinhalese, Tamil, and Thai to look at these sample images:
