Instruction found on doors to push inward.
خلفية ثقافية
In cities like Bucharest, 'Împinge' signs are often ignored by people in a rush, leading to many funny 'face-to-glass' moments. It's a common sight to see someone pulling a push door. Traditional wooden gates in villages don't use signs. Instead, there is a social 'push'—neighbors often push the gate open to enter a yard, as hospitality is very open. The usage is identical to Romania. However, you might hear more Russian-influenced slang for 'shove' in informal settings, but 'Împinge' remains the standard for signs. In modern office buildings (corporates), signs are often bilingual: 'Împinge / Push'. This reflects the globalized nature of the Romanian workforce.
The Door Rule
If you aren't sure, look for the metal plate. Usually, the side with the metal plate is the one you 'Împinge'.
Don't be too forceful
Some old Romanian doors are fragile. 'Împinge' doesn't mean 'kick'!
