Pansamentul este curat.

Romanian usually puts the definite article at the end of the noun, not as a separate word like English the.

So:

• pansament = bandage / dressing
• pansamentul = the bandage / the dressing

Here, -ul is the definite article ending.

Pansament is a medical word. It usually means a bandage, dressing, or wound dressing.

Depending on context, English might translate it differently:

• bandage
• dressing
• sometimes something like the wound dressing

So the Romanian word is slightly broader than just one fixed English word.

Este means is. It is the 3rd person singular form of the verb a fi (to be).

In this sentence:

• Pansamentul = the subject
• este = is
• curat = clean

So the structure is simply:

• The bandage is clean

Romanian normally uses este in this kind of sentence, just like English uses is.

Yes. E is the very common short form of este.

So these both work:

• Pansamentul este curat.
• Pansamentul e curat.

The version with e is very common in everyday speech.
The version with este sounds a bit fuller or slightly more formal.

Because curat has to agree with pansamentul.

Pansament is a neuter noun in Romanian. Neuter nouns behave:

• like masculine in the singular
• like feminine in the plural

Since this sentence is singular, the adjective takes the masculine singular form:

• curat = clean

Compare:

• pansamentul este curat = singular
• pansamentele sunt curate = plural

So in the plural, it becomes curate.

It is neuter.

That matters because Romanian neuter nouns change their behavior depending on number:

• singular: they act like masculine
• plural: they act like feminine

That is why you get:

• singular: un pansament curat
• plural: două pansamente curate

This is a very common pattern in Romanian.

The normal word order here is:

• Pansamentul este curat.

That is the most natural neutral order: subject + verb + adjective.

Romanian word order is somewhat flexible, but changing it usually adds emphasis or sounds literary. For example, moving curat to the front would sound marked, not neutral.

So for everyday use, stick with:

• Pansamentul este curat.

A rough pronunciation guide is:

• pan-sa-MEN-tul ES-te ku-RAT

A few useful notes:

• ă does not appear in this sentence.
• c in curat sounds like k
• r in Romanian is usually a tapped or rolled r
• stress falls roughly on:
  • -ment- in pansamentul
  • es- in este
  • -rat in curat

A more approximate English-style guide would be:

• pahn-sah-MEN-tool YES-teh koo-RAHT

Yes, curat can mean clean in several senses, depending on context:

• physically clean
• pure
• neat
• clear of dirt or contamination

In this sentence, because pansamentul is medical, the natural meaning is physical cleanliness or sterility-related cleanliness: the dressing is clean.

You would usually say:

• un pansament curat = a clean bandage / a clean dressing

Notice the difference:

• Pansamentul este curat. = The bandage is clean.
• un pansament curat = a clean bandage

So one sentence describes the condition of a specific bandage, while the other is just a noun phrase.

The plural is:

• Pansamentele sunt curate. = The bandages / dressings are clean.

Changes to notice:

• pansamentul → pansamentele
• este → sunt
• curat → curate

This shows the neuter pattern clearly:

• singular behaves like masculine: curat
• plural behaves like feminine: curate
