Questions & Answers about Răspunsul este perfect.

Why does răspuns become răspunsul?

Because Romanian usually puts the definite article at the end of the noun instead of using a separate word like English the.

• răspuns = answer / an answer
• răspunsul = the answer

So Răspunsul este perfect uses the definite form because it means the answer.

This is one of the first big differences English speakers notice in Romanian:

• băiat = boy
• băiatul = the boy
• răspuns = answer
• răspunsul = the answer

Is răspuns masculine or neuter?

Răspuns is a neuter noun.

That can be confusing at first, because in Romanian, neuter nouns behave like masculine in the singular and feminine in the plural.

So in the singular:

• un răspuns bun = a good answer
• răspunsul bun = the good answer

But in the plural:

• două răspunsuri bune = two good answers
• răspunsurile bune = the good answers

That is why in your sentence the adjective is perfect, not a feminine form.
