Today's word is:

barcă - bărci (plural)
boat - noun (neutral)

O barcă plutește pe lac.
A boat float on the lake.

Barca mea este nouă.

Bărcile pline cu pirați vin spre noi.
The boats filled with pirates are coming towards us. 

I know it's a late response, but may it still helps In Hungarian it's like this:

Nem tudom elképzelni az életem nélküled.

 

Hello

 I've added some Romanian idioms, but they are not the translations of the English one, but the expressions used in Romanian.

Nice idea, by the way  

When I need to translate sentences into languages that I do not know I use http://webtranslation.paralink.com/translations.asp . It provides translations from 4 providers, Google translate included. I then translate back into English all the results and choose the best one. I sometimes even google the resulted sentence to see if anything matches.

Google translate is very bad at translation entire sentences.

For work, I sometimes needed to translate some sentences in 16 languages and what I did was use http://webtranslation.paralink.com/translations.asp and translated the sentence from English to the language I needed (you will see that it uses more that one translation providers therefore you may end up with more than one result) and then use the tool again to translate back the result(s). I've always used the best match.

And if you are still in doubt try googling you best match to see if anyone else uses it like that

Hello

I saw that there were some people interested in learning Romanian and I thought it would be fun to start a "Word of the day" thread with Romanian words.

So, the first word:

floare - flori (plural)
flower - noun (feminine)

Am primit o floare.
I have received a flower.

Floarea mea este albastră.
My flower is blue.

Grădina este plină de flori.
The garden is full of flowers.

 

Hello  I would gladly help you maintain you Romanian skills if you are still interested
