What is the correct way to pronounce "Ţepeş" as in Vlad Ţepeş?

I have no idea what those accents under the "T" and "s" do.

    In Romanian,

    Ţepeş = "tsepesh" meaning "impaler"

    S / s = "s"

    T / t = "t"

    Ș / ş = "sh"

    Ţ/ț = "ts"

    Source(s): I remember it after reading some book on Count Dracul/-a, either it's in the book or I looked it up online. I forgot.
