==Introduction== | |||
Romanian is an inflected language. This means that the endings of words can change depending on how they are grammatically used. The words on this list may be encountered in a different form than that which is listed here. The following are endings which are commonly found.<br> | |||
'''Plural endings''': <u>-i</u>, <u>-e</u>, <u>-le</u>, and <u>-uri</u>. Plural endings can change the spelling of the original word. For example, <u>d</u> in singular can become <u>z</u> in plural, <u>a</u> can become <u>e</u>.<br> | |||
'''"of" and "for"''': on singular words, the endings <u>-ui</u>, <u>-lui</u>, <u>-ei</u>, and <u>-lei</u> can mean "of" or "for." On plural words, the endings <u>-or</u> and <u>-lor</u> can mean "of" or "for". <br> | |||
'''"the"''': the endings <u>-le</u> and <u>-ul</u> can mean "the". | |||
