Hello! :) I decided to make this video after meeting a lot of people who wanted to learn a bit of Romanian, but YouTube can't give them lessons! xD
This is lesson 1, the alphabet of the language, hope I'll make more than this :)
I apologize for making mistakes and for my Romanian accent, but I can't do anything with it :(
Feel free to comment or like or whatever ;)

Oh, and sorry for the low quality of the audio, hope you understand what I say =D

EDIT: Yey, a bit more and I'll have 10.000 viewers *love you*... Thanks. I just want to say I'm kind of sick to hear "omg, you don't spell that correctly" or whatever. Jeez, if you see something is wrong I appreciate you tell me, but the video is already uploaded (plus that this was the first) so I can't really do anything about it anymore. I'll try in the next videos not to repeat that mistake. And btw, you don't really have to care about MY ENGLISH, for God's sake, you want to learn ROMANIAN, not English. Mulţumesc ^_^

EDIT 2: Thank you for all the comments and all the support :) Really appreciate, and I'm really sorry I cannot answer to all the question you gave me. Anyway, I saw you're really interested in accents, especially the Moldavian one. I have to say I'm from Maramureş county, for those interested. Maybe that's a bit confusing for you :)
And I would like to thank you for those who asked me about the videos and the language. These videos were made for teaching you, and I made them the best I could *excuses again for typos*, but I can't teach everybody privately. Please understand this, I'm not a teacher, I don't really know how to teach. I'm very glad you understand everything in these videos and that they're helpful :)

  • 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:)

  • @armanda89 No. In încă and fântână there is the ă not an â :) They're different letters and sounds.

  • So why is carne pronounced "kar-d-neh" when C in the Romanian alphabet the "ch" sound?

  • @polandpal97 In words, the C is like the C in "car" :) Only if it's "ce" or "ci" it's like in the ch in "cheese".

    But when we say the alphabet, we usually say "ce" or the "ch" sound.

  • 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.

  • Rolling of the "r" 's...gave me issues in Spanish...we meet again!

see all
