뜻
Describing high temperatures outdoors.
문화적 배경
In the summer, especially in the south (Muntenia), the 'cald afară' can reach 40°C. This leads to 'siesta' hours where streets are empty between 1 PM and 5 PM. In mountain regions, 'cald afară' is a relative term. 20°C might be considered very warm after a long winter. The phrase is the #1 conversation starter with taxi drivers and shopkeepers during the summer months. Warm weather is often discussed in terms of its effect on crops (e.g., 'e cald, e bine pentru porumb').
The 'E' shortcut
In 99% of conversations, Romanians say 'E cald' instead of 'Este cald'. It sounds much more natural.
Don't say 'Sunt cald'
Saying 'Sunt cald' can sometimes be misinterpreted or just sound very strange. Stick to 'Îmi e cald'.
