The focus of this lesson is Introducing Yourself
Topic 1: How introduce yourself
Sentence from the Lesson:
Bună, sunt Raluca. Îmi pare bine.
"Hi, I'm Raluca. Nice to meet you."
Let’s start with a polite and common way to introduce yourself.
Bună, sunt Raluca. Îmi pare bine.
"Hi, I'm Raluca. Nice to meet you."
The first word is Bună, which means "hi", or "hello". After that comes sunt, which means "I am". Then, say your name. For example, Bună, sunt Raluca ,"Hi, I’m Raluca".
Finally, say Îmi pare bine, which means "nice to meet you".
So all together it would be:
Bună, sunt Raluca. Îmi pare bine.
Topic 2: Another way of introducing yourself
Sentence from the Lesson:
Bună, mă numesc Raluca. Îmi pare bi-ne.
"Hi, my name is Raluca. Nice to meet you."
There is also another way to say your name.
Instead of Sunt Raluca, I could say Mă numesc Raluca.
Mă numesc literally means "I call myself". But we use it to mean "my name is".
Bună, mă numesc Raluca.. Îmi pare bine. "Hi, my name is Raluca. Nice to meet you."
Tip
In formal situations, people in Romanian speaking countries greet each other by shaking hands. On the other hand, if we meet someone we are very friendly with, we kiss each other on both cheeks. So don’t be surprised if this happens to you!
