💡

The 'Că' Rule

Always include 'că'. Even if you can skip 'that' in English, skipping 'că' in Romanian makes the sentence sound broken.

Think of the Timeline

Visualize the past as a line. If you are standing in the past, everything behind you is even further back.

常见问题 (6)

No. Unlike English where 'that' is optional, 'că' is mandatory in Romanian reported speech.
Usually, no. If the statement is still true, keep the present tense. If it's strictly in the past, you can use the compound past or imperfect.
Only if the reporting verb is in the past. If it's in the present, you don't need to.
In Romanian, we still shift the tense for consistency, even if the fact remains true.
Pentru că perspectiva se schimbă. Când raportezi, nu mai ești persoana care a vorbit inițial.
Da, în vorbirea informală poți omite 'că'.
