Questions & Answers about Titularul contului retrage banii.

Why does Romanian put the at the end of the noun in titularul and banii?

Romanian usually uses a postposed definite article, which means the is attached to the end of the noun instead of appearing as a separate word in front.

So:

• titular = holder
• titularul = the holder

and

• bani = money / coins
• banii = the money

This is one of the most important differences from English. Instead of the account holder, Romanian says something more like account-holder-the.

What exactly does titularul mean here?

Titularul here means the holder or the account holder.

In banking and official contexts, titular de cont or titularul contului is a very common way to say account holder. It refers to the person whose name is on the account.

So although the basic noun titular can mean something like holder or owner/registered holder depending on context, in this sentence it specifically means the account holder.

Why is it contului and not just contul?
