Questions & Answers about Altcineva răspunde.

What does altcineva literally consist of?

It is built from alt + cineva.

• alt = other / another
• cineva = someone

So altcineva is a fixed pronoun meaning someone else / another person.

A useful point: Romanian writes it as one word here: altcineva.

Why isn’t there a subject pronoun like el or ea?

Romanian usually does not need subject pronouns when the verb already shows the person and number.

In răspunde, the verb ending tells you it is 3rd person singular:

• he answers
• she answers
• it answers (if context allows)

Since the subject is already expressed by altcineva, adding el/ea would normally be unnecessary.
