E soare afară

It is sunny outside

معنی

Describing sunny weather.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The phrase is often used to justify taking a 'pauză de cafea' (coffee break) outdoors. Romanians value 'vreme frumoasă' (beautiful weather) highly for social bonding. In villages, 'e soare' is a signal that the land is dry enough for agricultural work like 'prășit' (hoeing) or 'cosit' (mowing). Young people use the phrase as a prompt to go to 'terase' (outdoor terraces), which are a staple of Romanian city life from April to October. There is a saying 'Soare cu dinți' (Sun with teeth), which means it's sunny but very cold, usually in early spring or late autumn.

💡

Use the contraction

Always use 'E' instead of 'Este' in conversation to sound more like a native.

⚠️

Don't use 'it'

Never say 'El e soare' or 'Ea e soare'. Romanian weather expressions are impersonal.
