Explanation: The verb "a cânta" is a regular verb in Romanian, meaning its conjugation follows a predictable pattern. To conjugate it in the present tense, remove the infinitive ending "-a" and add the appropriate ending for each pronoun: "cânt" for "eu," "cânți" for "tu," "cântă" for "el/ea," "cântăm" for "noi," "cântați" for "voi," and "cântă" for "ei/ele."

  Adjectiv: creativ

4. Activitate: a alerga

  Adjectiv: obositor

5. Activitate: a viziona

  Adjectiv: captivant

Explanation: When describing activities with adjectives in Romanian, it is important to consider the gender and number agreement. In the given examples, the adjectives "distractiv," "interesant," "creativ," "obositor," and "captivant" agree in gender and number with the corresponding activities. For example, "a dansa" is a feminine singular activity, so the adjective "distractiv" (masculine singular) becomes "distractivă" (feminine singular) to match it.

Practice Scenario 1:

My favorite hobby is playing the guitar. I enjoy strumming the chords and singing along to my favorite songs. It's a creative and relaxing activity that allows me to express myself.

Practice Scenario 2:

When I visit Romania, I would love to participate in traditional folk dancing. The intricate footwork and lively music make it an exciting and fun activity. I also want to try my hand at pottery, as it is a traditional craft that showcases Romania's artistic heritage. Lastly, I'm eager to go hiking in the Carpathian Mountains and explore the stunning landscapes. It will be a challenging yet rewarding experience.

It's essential to practice these verbs with different nouns and create your sentences, so you can master their usage and improve your speaking skills.
+By using these verbs, you can effectively describe a wide range of activities in Romanian. Practice using them in different contexts to improve your proficiency.
-Now let's move on to adjectives. Adjectives are used to describe how the hobby or activity is done, what level of intensity or enjoyment someone has. Here are some examples:
