A1 Expression カジュアル

Ce faci?

What are you doing?

意味

Asking about someone's current activity.

🌍

文化的背景

Romanians value social connection. Asking 'Ce faci?' is often followed by a light touch on the shoulder or a handshake among men, and a double kiss on the cheeks among women or mixed friends. In the eastern part of Romania and the Republic of Moldova, the accent is softer. 'Ce faci?' might sound more like 'Ce fași?'. It's a charming regional variation. Among young people in cities like Bucharest or Cluj, 'Ce faci?' is often replaced by 'Ce zici?' or the English-influenced 'Ce faci, man?'. In villages, it is considered rude to pass someone on the road without a greeting. Even if you don't know them, a 'Bună ziua, ce faceți?' is expected.

💡

The 'Bine' Default

Just like in English, the most common answer is 'Bine' (Well), even if you're having a mediocre day.

⚠️

Watch the Register

Using 'Ce faci?' with an elderly person can be seen as quite rude in Romania. Stick to 'Ce faceți?' to be safe.

The 'Tu' Emphasis

If someone asks you 'Ce faci?', respond with 'Bine, tu ce faci?'. Adding the 'tu' (you) makes it a polite exchange.

Mostly, yes. It's the informal equivalent. However, it can also literally mean 'What are you doing?' depending on the situation.

You can say 'Nu prea bine' (Not too well) or 'Așa și așa' (So-so). Romanians are often more open to honest answers than English speakers.

Only if the email is to a close friend. For anyone else, use 'Sper că sunteți bine' (I hope you are well).

It is the shorthand for 'Ce faci?'. It's extremely common in Romanian texting culture.

In Romanian, a final 'i' after a consonant often just softens that consonant (palatalization) rather than being a full vowel sound.

Not usually. To ask about someone's profession, you would say 'Cu ce te ocupi?' (With what do you occupy yourself?).

'Ce faci?' is more immediate (now), while 'Ce mai faci?' is more general (lately).

No, you must use the plural 'Ce faceți?'.

No, it's standard informal Romanian. It's not 'slang', but it is 'casual'.

Try 'Uite, cu treabă' (Look, with work/busy) or 'Pe aici, prin zonă' (Around here, in the area).
