Learning the Romanian Feminine displayed below is vital to the language. Romanian feminine refers to female qualities attributed specifically to women and girls or things considered feminine. The complement to feminine is masculine.
To form a feminine word from the masculine in Romanian, you simply add (-ă) if the word ends in a consonant. The nouns with the stem ending in (-or) insert the vowel “a” between “o” and “r” in order to form the feminine gender ending in “oară”. Here are some examples:
expert (expert, masculine) becomes expertă (expert, feminine)
profesor (professor, masculine) becomes profesoară (expert, feminine)
Here are some examples:
| English Feminine | Romanian Feminine |
