The 'Vor' Memory Trick

Think of 'Vor' as 'Voices'. They (many people) have voices and they 'vor' (want) something. It helps you remember it's plural!

Remember that 'sunt' works for both 'I' and 'They'. It's like a buy-one-get-one-free deal in grammar!

In almost every Romanian verb, the 'Tu' form ends in 'i'. It's like a little whistle at the end of the word. Listen for it!
