chimion - cumin; ienibahar - juniper

The problem is that the romanian word "chimion" represents the plant, and the word "chimen" represents the seeds (which are used as spice).
The translation for "chimen" is caraway.
For "ienibahar" (or "enibahar") we don't have this distiction - the English word is the same - juniper.
The correct lat. expr. are:
chimion - Carum carvi
ienibahar - Myrthus pimenta
