常见错误

In high-level rhetoric, 'dar' is too informal. Use 'ci' to contrast 'nu doar'. Also, avoid colloquial adjectives like 'greu' for 'dificil'.

Wrong: Nu doar că e greu, dar e și scump.
正确: Nu doar că este dificil, ci este și costisitor.

Hypothetical constructs often require the conditional-optative mood to sound truly academic and speculative.

Wrong: Presupunând că el va veni, îi vom spune.
正确: Presupunând că el ar veni, i-am spune.

Opening a formal speech with 'Bună ziua' is too casual for a C2 oratorical context. Use established formal addresses.

Wrong: Bună ziua la toți, sunt aici să vorbesc...
正确: Onorată asistență, mă aflu astăzi în fața dumneavoastră...

Next Steps

You are now operating at a level that many native speakers strive for. Your ability to articulate complex thoughts with elegance is truly impressive.

常见问题 (6)

At a basic level, yes. But at C1-C2, you need to use the conditional mood (Ați putea) to sound truly sophisticated.
Use oare in questions to add a sense of wonder or to make a rhetorical point softer. It's like saying 'I wonder if...' or 'Is it not so?'.
No, it is used correctly to avoid cacophony (e.g., 'ca și coleg') or to mean 'just like'. However, using it to mean 'as' (e.g., 'ca și medic') is a common error.
Use the 'rule of three', rhetorical questions, and vary your intonation. Also, use formal connectors like totodată and în consecință.
Da, este acceptabil în vorbire și literatură, dar în scrierea academică strictă se preferă 'Totuși' sau 'Cu toate acestea'.
'Deci' este mai comun și informal. 'Așadar' este mai elegant și specific argumentației logice.
