Răspunsul final este corect.

Because Romanian usually puts the definite article at the end of the noun.

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

The ending -ul is the masculine/neuter singular definite article here. This is one of the first things English speakers notice in Romanian, because English uses a separate word (the), while Romanian attaches it to the noun.

In Romanian, adjectives often come after the noun, especially in neutral, ordinary statements.

So:

• răspunsul final = the final answer

This noun + adjective order is very common. Romanian can sometimes place an adjective before the noun, but that usually adds emphasis, style, or a slightly different tone. For a normal phrase, răspunsul final is the expected order.

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

So in this sentence it works like is in English:

• Răspunsul final este corect = The final answer is correct

Romanian normally uses este in full, standard speech and writing. In everyday conversation, people very often say e instead:

• Răspunsul final e corect

That is more casual but completely natural.

Because corect is a predicate adjective: it comes after the verb este and describes the subject.

Structure:

• Răspunsul final = the subject
• este = the verb
• corect = adjective describing the subject

This is very similar to English The final answer is correct. So the word order here is very natural in both languages.

Yes. In Romanian, adjectives generally agree in gender and number with the noun they describe, including when they are used after a fi.

Here, răspunsul is masculine singular, so corect is also in the masculine singular form.

Compare:

• răspunsul este corect = masculine singular
• soluția este corectă = feminine singular
• răspunsurile sunt corecte = plural

So even though corect comes after the verb, it still agrees with the noun.

Răspuns is a neuter noun.

In Romanian, neuter nouns behave:

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

That is why in the singular you see:

• un răspuns
• răspunsul
• corect

But in the plural:

• două răspunsuri
• răspunsurile
• corecte

So a learner may see masculine-looking forms in the singular, but the noun is still classified as neuter.

In a normal complete sentence like this, no: standard Romanian keeps the verb a fi.

So:

• Răspunsul final este corect = correct standard form
• Răspunsul final corect = not a normal full sentence with the same meaning

However, in very informal speech, Romanian often shortens este to e:

• Răspunsul final e corect

That is the usual spoken shortcut, not complete omission.

Yes, but the basic order here is the most neutral one.

Normal order:

• Răspunsul final este corect.

Other orders are possible for emphasis, for example:

• Corect este răspunsul final.
• Este corect răspunsul final.

These are more marked and may sound literary, emphatic, or context-dependent. For a learner, the original sentence is the safest and most natural pattern.

In this context, final is the natural choice.

• final often means final, definitive, last in the process
• ultim often means last in a sequence, and can sometimes sound more literal or stylistically different

For final answer, Romanian normally says:

• răspunsul final

Using răspunsul ultim would usually not be the normal translation here.

A learner may find this word tricky.

• ă is a short central vowel, something like the a in English sofa, but shorter and more central
• ul at the end is the attached definite article

A rough learner-friendly pronunciation guide could be:

• răspunsul ≈ ruh-SPOON-sul

That is only approximate, but it helps show that:

• the stress is on spuns
• ră is not a full English ra
• the final -ul is pronounced, not silent

Because Romanian usually expresses the by attaching the definite article to the noun, not by adding a separate word before it.

So English:

• the final answer

Romanian:

• răspunsul final

The definiteness is already built into răspunsul, so Romanian does not need a separate word like English the.
