💡

The 'Că' Rule

Think of că as a bridge. It connects the person speaking to the message they sent. Without the bridge, the sentence falls apart!

The 'Se' Trick

If you can replace 'People say' with 'It is said', always use 'Se'. It's the fastest way to sound like a native.

The Mirror Rule

Imagine you are holding a mirror. If you report what someone said, you are turning the mirror to face them, not you.

The 'Dacă' Rule

سوالات رایج (6)

It is retelling what someone said without quoting them word-for-word. You use it to share information or stories, like saying A zis că vine.
Not really! It just requires shifting pronouns and choosing the right connector like că or să. Once you get the pattern, it's very repetitive.
It is a way to share information without identifying the source. In Romanian, we use se + a reporting verb like se spune (it is said).
The most common way is Se spune că.... It is perfect for both formal and informal contexts.
Pentru că perspectiva se schimbă. Când raportezi, nu mai ești persoana care a vorbit inițial.
Da, în vorbirea informală poți omite 'că'.
