Hi Romanian learners! 😊
In today's lesson, we will be exploring the basics of Romanian nouns. Nouns are an essential part of any language, and understanding them is key to mastering Romanian. We will look at the different types of nouns, their gender, and how to form plurals.

Types of Nouns
Nouns can be divided into two main categories: common nouns and proper nouns. Common nouns refer to general things, such as 'table', 'chair', 'dog', etc. Proper nouns refer to specific people, places, or things, such as 'John', 'Paris', or 'Apple'.
Gender
In Romanian, nouns have gender. This means that they are either masculine or feminine. The gender of a noun is usually indicated by its ending. For example, the word for 'table' is 'masa', which is a feminine noun. The word for 'chair' is 'scaun', which is a masculine noun. It is important to remember the gender of a noun when using it in a sentence.
Plurals
In Romanian, nouns can be singular or plural. To form the plural of a noun, you usually add an '-i' to the end of the word. For example, the plural of 'masa' (table) is 'mese' and the plural of 'scaun' (chair) is 'scaune'. However, there are some exceptions to this rule, so it is important to learn the correct plural forms of each noun.
