I think you're confusing people with your alphabet pronunciation, if you were to stick to the correct pronunciation (the one that we use) people would not have such trouble understanding it. It's a, bî, cî, dî, e, fî, gî, hî, .....etc. Anyway just my two cents.
Ai accent,dar in fine,nu iti trebuie accent ca sa vorbesti romana.Este o limba foarte grea pt. cei ce o invata.Eu traiesc in Romania si m-am nascut tot in Romania.Desi ai niste greseli este bine pentru inceput,continua si vei prinde limba.Concentreaza-te mai mult pe ortograme pentru ca limba romana pe asta se bazeaza.Sa ai o zi frumoasa!:)
Hello!I'm Romanian and I want to help you.In your video you have some mistakes.G is reading only ge.Ghe is group of letters.H isn't reading ha,only the second you tell us.Who want to learn Romanian,contact me at denisadk@gmail.com
I am very excited to run across this video! my boyfriend is Moldovan and he is teaching me Romanian but he can't always tell me why words are what they are. This video has helped me tremendously! I will definitely be checking out the other videos! thanks!
i m going to see all ur videos about romanian language so i can improve it, u see i was born in Romania but moved out when i was 5 and i know how to speak it and pronounce the words and read a little bit, but i dont know any grammar rules and is kinda difficult for me to make a discussion in Romanian language for example with my grand-mother because my vocabulary is poor and i also find difficulty on translating greek words to romanian.
I am of Russian herritage and speak english. I have studied Spanish in school and was wondering if knowing Russian and Spanish would give me an edge in learning this Language. I listen to Romanian Club Music and really would love to learn the Language so i can understand what i am listening to. It is the most beautiful language i have ever heard.
@skhaimsky Yes, both languages will help you, Russian will help you mostly with objects, Spanish with almost any verb :). But if you wish more you can learn Latin and then you could easily start learning Romanian , French,Italian and Portuguese :).
There are 3 different accents. Accent ardelenesc, accent moldovenesc and accent oltenesc. " Accent ardelenesc " sounds like original romanian but with hungarian influence, " accent moldovenesc " sounds just like the normal language but with russian influence and " accent oltenesc " it is the most original romanian accent because it was used in " Tara Romaneasca ". I use the romanian language with hungarian influence, but there is no a big difference between these 3 accents,
@andrepnd , yeap many words similar with Portuguese but there is almost 80% lexical similarity with Italian and in the case of some dialects ( Sardinian, Sicilian, etc ) it's even closer. Italian is by far the closest language to Romanian. Salutari in Brazilia :)
Actually the pronunciation is quite easy I'd say but grammar is more difficult.
"ǎ" similar to "e" in "father", "mother" or the simple indefinite article "a" - "a book" .
"â from a " and "î from i " , "â" & "î" designate the same sound, in the past all words used to be written with "î" but new grammarians set new rules such as: "î" - beginning, end of words and in compound words (+ pref) such as: multîndrǎgit (notice that "mult" is her a prefix) etc.
@MMiraJeS "â" is used anywhere - inside - the word.
To pronounce them think of something like you're going to the bathroom and there is a smell and you would say "ewww" which I've noticed in some movies it's somewhat similar to the Romanian "î", this might be a creepy explanation but trust me it kind of works.
Also take notes: Romanian vowels are shorter than vowels from other languages, be careful mostly with final "i" and especially with "li" & "ri" combination.
Hi, woow thank you for these great videos! dont worry about accent, nobody's accent is perfect, and i am shure for some of us will be dificult get romanian accent when we speak in romanian :).. yeah my mother tongue is spanish also :) i hope i can learn romanian soon :)
Ce faceți, I'm trying to learn some more Romanian but am finding it difficult because I don't have anybody to speak it with! Can anybody help? I love these videos by the way!! Mulțumesc mult!
hi! i just started learning romanian but i'm struggling with the pronunciation of â. i know the sounds because we have to same in dutch but after studying it seems some â are pronounced more like a. like in the words în^ca and fântânâ. you pronounce the last a's of the word more like a instead of î & â. is that because its the last letter of the word? (same in mama) thanks:)
@ceeyda22 when C is in front of "e" or "i", "he" or "hi" it is pronounced along with them as a single sound, and it's different in each case. [chi] sounds like "ki" in "kiss" and [che] sounds like "ke" in "market"
[ci] sounds like the "chi" from chilli, and [ce] sounds like "che" from cherish
It other cases, C is C as in "candle".
The same goes to G. You can search for Romanian words starting with "ge" on forvo dot com, I don't any word that contains all of those sounds in English.
That was very cute! I loved it! Plus you still have a Romanian accent. Most Romanians outside of Romania have tilted or lost their accent to the country they now live in. You still live in Romania, don't you? Loved it. Te Iubesc.
I was surprised how many of the sample words I knew, but it seems learning the actual alphabet alone looks like a challenge... looks like just gotta keep watching the video....
Don't worry about negative comments, from a Catalan speaker it's easier to learn your language coz Catalan and Romanian are very close! Thank you for the videos and ask me if you would learn about my language! Salut! (in Catalan we say Salut in the end, the reverse for Romanian language) Merci (the same for both languages)^^
Eşti uimitor!! I've been trying for two years to learn Romanian and by far, your annunciation and explanations have made it the easiest! Vă mulţumesc foarte mult! ^-^
Thank you very much for this video, it helps me a lot. I hope you are going to make another ones with more lessons, I'm really into this language and I'd like to learn more things about it; I just can do it by this way because there are no schools where it is taught. Salutarii din Mexic!!
Thanks!!! I have some work and travel Employees from Moldova and I am trying to learn their language. They are helping me, but your videos definitely are helping!
@anothercommonguy you're welcome:) it is kind of odd though to because spanish, portuguese, french, italian are all close together.... but the other romance language is in the middle of slavic languages.. kinda weird how that worked out.
@anothercommonguy because Romanian is one of the five 'Romance' languages: French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Romanian. This doesn't mean that they sound romantic, but they come from the word 'Roman' as each language comes from Latin. For example, the words 'one, two, three' in Latin are 'unus, duo, tres', in French: 'un, deux, trois', in Spanish: 'uno, dos, tres', in Italian: 'uno, due, tre', in Portuguese: 'um,dois,três', and in Romanian: 'unu, doi, trei'. See? They're all similar :)
Salut! Cum esti? Thank you for making this video (and the others) I will use them as a learning aid. It is very helpful to be able to listen to a real Romanian speaker.
@kryss483 : Don't ever apologize for your accent. The world would be boring if we all sounded the same. One more question: Your English is very good. Do they teach English in Romanian schools as a second language?
@auggiedoggy romanian kids start learning foreign languages in kindergarten or second year of school(at least when i was a kid, they might start in the 1st grade now).
historically french was the 1st foreign language taught with the second being english/spanish/italian/portuguese/german/russian. the second language is usually taught beginning with the 5th/6th year in school(11-13yo).
now, the main language they learn is english with the others trailing(french is 2nd by numbers of students).
OMG! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS! I am interning in Arad, Romania this coming june for 6 weeks and wanted to pick up some romanian. Your videos are the most useful, best thing i can find! Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! They've helped me a lot. =]
precis ca nu esti moldovanca :) doar o rominca din toate cuvintele rominesti care se incep cu 'h' ai ales 'hamster'. haha! cuvint folosit de orice moldovan. Pot sa-ti propun citeva - 'hogeag', 'hamei', 'haiduc', 'hora', 'hrisca', 'hrana' :)))))))))))))))))
@kryss483 Problema e ca tu doresti pe vizitatori sa-o inveti limba romana, de ce ca nu-i oferi posobilitatea de a invata un cuvint nou? Cuvintul este pur englez, voi l-ati imprumutat.Si trebuie nu sa-i inveti fonetic h englez, ci fonteticul h romin, chiar daca ar parea ca suna la fel fiecare limba isi are nuantele sale.
Whoever you are thanks a world... I love to learn Romanian because of my Love, so please if possible put some videos about regular daily conversations. Once again Thanks
ALl romanian girls have got this wonderful relaxing voice? Or are you a case? :D Anyway i started to study romanian ;P i'm looking for a teacher :D If you can help me, multumesc ;P
I'm in another one of my phases where I want to learn an exotic language :D This time I wanna learn Romanian. I come from a Spanish and speak English so Romanian seems easier to learn than I thought :D
Hi there @ kryss483. Thanks a lot. I am trying to learn Romanian on my own. My girlfriend is Romanian and I am Indian. I am planing to meet her this year and I want to learn Romanian so that I can communicate a little with her parents as they don't know English. :) I am subscribing to your channel. Please also come up with other videos.
I'm from Brazil and I love your country! Romanian seems like Portuguese! I just noticed, some words are the same! Thank you for posting the lessons, I'll try learning some of the basics! And don't worry, your accent is beautiful!
I'm 1/4 Romanian myself; my great-grandparents are from Bucharest. I remember my first encounter with a Romanian Greek-Catholic priest, and when I presented him with that knowledge, he began to speak Romanian. I felt kind of embarrassed, as I was the first generation of my family not to know any Romanian. I have heard my great-grandmother speak it, but I couldn't understand a thing she said.
Thanks a lot! I've been looking for the correct pronunciation of â and î. By the way, it's very fun to notice just how alike Romanian and Portuguese are! I am quite amazed at how much Romanian I can understand, even though I have no prior experience with your language at all. Best wishes and cheers from Brazil.
@SkelaSnave , it's true. The biggest similarity Romanian has with Italian ( over 77% ) and in some cases of central and southern Italian dialects even closer. It seems our ancestors ( Romans ) came from there....Anyway i think by far the most awkward Latin language is French ( even statistically it has the biggest deviation from vulgar Latin ). Cheers from Romania to our Latin family!
@gogoasacenusie I wish there was somehow a way for Spanish speakers understand Romanian....some words are completely different like bǎiatul and niño. It's funny bǎitul reminds me of how Irish people say boy. They say something like boy'ol :)
@SkelaSnave , right. Also in Italian is different - "ragazzo". For Romanian, i can tell you that "baiat" is an ancient word of Dacian origin ( Dacians were the native inhabitants of Romania before the Roman conquest ). Anyway, if you're interested you should see the written form of Romanian, i'm sure you'll find it interesting.
@SkelaSnave , no, "ragazzo" means boy in Italian. I was showing you it's different too from "nino" or "baiat". About the written form i was saying that, unlike when a language is spoken, in the written form you can see all the words clearly and consequently see the common or different origin
I really love this lesson @kryss483 !! I have a friend from Romania and I want to impress her with Romanian so I am trying to learn the language. It is so fun! Don't listen to @MsBenjamin27 ... Your accent is beautiful :)
@MsBenjamin27 And you should keep your mouth shut because I try at least helping people. And what if I can't speak English, oh so well as you would like to? I don't force you to watch these videos, nor to listen my "accent and pronunciation". You should know very well that Romanians have quite a deep accent when talking in English. You can see that here are people who want to learn this language and don't care about my English. You also shouldn't care.
@kryss483 So you are telling me that all romanians are as stupid as you are?I do not belive this,I think that there are romanians who know to pronounce and control their accent ,to improve their language,because as you know the better you pronounce and have a proper accent, the better a person will understand you(asta trebuia sa fi invatat tu la scoala,dupaia sa-i inveti tu pe altii...)
@MsBenjamin27 "learn others romanian language"? I believe you mean "teach others the Romanian language". It's embarrass not "emberass". Anyone who is speaking a second language will have an accent unless they are in an immersion situation for a very long time and even then most will retain some of their accent. This woman's English is a lot better then yours. You need to improve your English if you want to correct others. You're embarrassing yourself.
Buna ce faci ;).... Multumesc, this lesson has helped me very with the different ways on pronunciation. I have a lady friend in Romania, and I want to learn as much as possible to impress when we meet :D... I'm from Australia btw papa.....oh and for satanasfiend2008 maybe kryss483 is from Iasi :))
@Attackspeed You're referring to Moldova, as a region of Romania, or you're referring to the Republic of Moldova? Because the Rumanians from Republic of Moldova have a deep Russian accent (many years they were forced to speak Russian). Romanians from Moldovan region speak a Romanian softer language (they pronounce vowels much longer and deeper)

@moldumitru Dragu' meu, am ales cuvântul acela pentru că se găseşte şi în engleză în aceeaşi formă. De ce să fi ales altul, tipic românesc?

@kryss483 Problema e ca tu doresti pe vizitatori sa-o inveti limba romana, de ce ca nu-i oferi posobilitatea de a invata un cuvint nou? Cuvintul este pur englez, voi l-ati imprumutat.Si trebuie nu sa-i inveti fonetic h englez, ci fonteticul h romin, chiar daca ar parea ca suna la fel fiecare limba isi are nuantele sale.

Hi there @ kryss483. Thanks a lot. I am trying to learn Romanian on my own. My girlfriend is Romanian and I am Indian. I am planing to meet her this year and I want to learn Romanian so that I can communicate a little with her parents as they don't know English. :) I am subscribing to your channel. Please also come up with other videos.
Regards,
Gaurav. :)

I'm 1/4 Romanian myself; my great-grandparents are from Bucharest. I remember my first encounter with a Romanian Greek-Catholic priest, and when I presented him with that knowledge, he began to speak Romanian. I felt kind of embarrassed, as I was the first generation of my family not to know any Romanian. I have heard my great-grandmother speak it, but I couldn't understand a thing she said.

Thanks a lot! I've been looking for the correct pronunciation of â and î. By the way, it's very fun to notice just how alike Romanian and Portuguese are! I am quite amazed at how much Romanian I can understand, even though I have no prior experience with your language at all. Best wishes and cheers from Brazil.

@kryss483 For Spanish speakers we can't understand Romanian but we can understand Italian.
SkelaSnave 10 months ago
@SkelaSnave , it's true. The biggest similarity Romanian has with Italian ( over 77% ) and in some cases of central and southern Italian dialects even closer. It seems our ancestors ( Romans ) came from there....Anyway i think by far the most awkward Latin language is French ( even statistically it has the biggest deviation from vulgar Latin ). Cheers from Romania to our Latin family!
gogoasacenusie 10 months ago
@gogoasacenusie I wish there was somehow a way for Spanish speakers understand Romanian....some words are completely different like bǎiatul and niño. It's funny bǎitul reminds me of how Irish people say boy. They say something like boy'ol :)
SkelaSnave 10 months ago
@SkelaSnave , right. Also in Italian is different - "ragazzo". For Romanian, i can tell you that "baiat" is an ancient word of Dacian origin ( Dacians were the native inhabitants of Romania before the Roman conquest ). Anyway, if you're interested you should see the written form of Romanian, i'm sure you'll find it interesting.
gogoasacenusie 10 months ago
@gogoasacenusie Does 'ragazzo' mean boy? What do you mean written form of Romanian?
SkelaSnave 10 months ago
@SkelaSnave , no, "ragazzo" means boy in Italian. I was showing you it's different too from "nino" or "baiat". About the written form i was saying that, unlike when a language is spoken, in the written form you can see all the words clearly and consequently see the common or different origin
gogoasacenusie 10 months ago
@gogoasacenusie Oh yeah I love the way it's spoken and written. Both look and sound really stunning.

@MsBenjamin27 And you should keep your mouth shut because I try at least helping people. And what if I can't speak English, oh so well as you would like to? I don't force you to watch these videos, nor to listen my "accent and pronunciation". You should know very well that Romanians have quite a deep accent when talking in English. You can see that here are people who want to learn this language and don't care about my English. You also shouldn't care.
kryss483 1 year ago 23
@kryss483 So you are telling me that all romanians are as stupid as you are?I do not belive this,I think that there are romanians who know to pronounce and control their accent ,to improve their language,because as you know the better you pronounce and have a proper accent, the better a person will understand you(asta trebuia sa fi invatat tu la scoala,dupaia sa-i inveti tu pe altii...)

@kryss483 Lol! I'm Romanian, seriously, for me those are really easy! :D
GTAIV1stFan 1 year ago
@MsBenjamin27 "learn others romanian language"? I believe you mean "teach others the Romanian language". It's embarrass not "emberass". Anyone who is speaking a second language will have an accent unless they are in an immersion situation for a very long time and even then most will retain some of their accent. This woman's English is a lot better then yours. You need to improve your English if you want to correct others. You're embarrassing yourself.

I love the video! I learned a lot.
I'm curious. Is there a major difference between the Romanian accent and the Moldovan accent?
Attackspeed 1 year ago
@Attackspeed You're referring to Moldova, as a region of Romania, or you're referring to the Republic of Moldova? Because the Rumanians from Republic of Moldova have a deep Russian accent (many years they were forced to speak Russian). Romanians from Moldovan region speak a Romanian softer language (they pronounce vowels much longer and deeper)
cornel10 1 year ago
@Attackspeed Personally, I believe that the Moldovan accent is very nice, especially for women.
