المعنى
Giving a compliment on someone's appearance.
خلفية ثقافية
Compliments are often followed by a small self-deprecating remark to show modesty. The usage is identical, but the accent might make 'frumos' sound slightly different (softer 's'). Physical beauty is often linked to being 'gospodar' (a good worker/householder). Influenced by English, 'Arăți cool' is sometimes used alongside 'Ești frumos'.
Gender is Key
Always remember: -os for men, -oasă for women. Mixing them up is the most common beginner mistake.
Inner Beauty
Don't be afraid to use it for someone's character. 'Ești un om frumos' is a very deep compliment.
