Questions & Answers about Compania aeriană localizează bagajul de cală.
Why is it compania and bagajul, not companie and bagaj?
Because Romanian usually puts the definite article at the end of the noun.
- companie = company
- compania = the company
- bagaj = baggage / luggage
- bagajul = the baggage
This is one of the big differences from English: instead of a separate word like the, Romanian often adds it to the noun itself.
Why does aeriană come after compania?
In Romanian, adjectives often come after the noun.
So:
- companie aeriană = airline / literally air company
- compania aeriană = the airline
This noun + adjective order is very common in Romanian, even though English usually does the opposite.
