According to Google Translate the first two are "girl" and the rest are "face". =)

Google Translate is a horrible tool for "translating" single words or lists of unrelated words.

Use a proper dictionary for that. The very nature of statistical models makes proper translation without context impossible for these systems, especially when uncommon words and diacritics are involved.

* fata - the girl

* fată - girl

* fața - the face

* față - face

* făta - was giving birth

* făță - a small fish, or a child who won't sit still

* fâța - was fussing

* fâță - variant of făță

As you might infer from the first 4, Romanian uses postfix "the" and for singular feminine words you can't tell the difference if you use only ASCII.
