Infiltrația inundă camera.

Yes. In Romanian, the definite article is usually attached to the end of the noun, not written as a separate word like English the.

• infiltrație = infiltration, seepage
• infiltrația = the infiltration / the seepage

So infiltrația is the definite singular form.

Exactly. camera here means the room.

The base noun is:

• cameră = room

Its definite singular form is:

• camera = the room

So both nouns in the sentence are definite:

• infiltrația = the infiltration / the leak / the seepage
• camera = the room

This is very normal in Romanian.

Not in meaning here. This is a common false friend for English speakers.

In Romanian:

• cameră = room
• camera = the room

The word for the device camera is usually:

• aparat foto = camera
• sometimes cameră video = video camera

So in this sentence, camera definitely means the room, not a photographic camera.

inundă is the 3rd person singular present form of the verb a inunda, meaning to flood or to inundate.

So:

• a inunda = to flood
• inundă = floods / is flooding

Because the subject infiltrația is singular, the verb is also singular:

• Infiltrația inundă... = The infiltration floods...

Because Romanian usually uses a postposed definite article, meaning the article is attached to the noun.

Compare:

• English: the room
• Romanian: camera

And:

• English: the infiltration
• Romanian: infiltrația

This is one of the biggest structural differences from English.

Yes, this sentence uses the basic Romanian word order:

• Subject + Verb + Object

So:

• Infiltrația = subject
• inundă = verb
• camera = direct object

Romanian word order is somewhat flexible, but this is the most neutral and straightforward order.

Because Romanian nouns usually do not change form between subject and direct object in the nominative/accusative.

So camera can be:

• subject form: camera = the room
• object form: camera = the room

You understand its role from the sentence structure and the verb, not from a special object ending.

A rough pronunciation guide is:

• Infiltrația ≈ in-feel-TRA-tsya
• inundă ≈ ee-NOON-duh
• camera ≈ KA-me-ra

A few useful pronunciation notes:

• ț sounds like ts in cats
• ă is a short central vowel, something like uh
• Stress is usually:
  • infilTRAția
  • iNUNdă
  • CAmera

So the whole sentence is roughly:

• in-feel-TRA-tsya ee-NOON-duh KA-me-ra

infiltrație often refers to water seepage, water infiltration, or moisture entering through a wall, roof, or ceiling. It can sound a bit more technical than a simple everyday leak.

Depending on context, Romanian might also use:

• scurgere = leak, leakage
• fisură = crack
• umezeală = dampness

So infiltrația inundă camera suggests water is getting in and causing flooding, often through seepage rather than, for example, a dripping faucet.

Yes, it is understandable and grammatically correct.

That said, in everyday speech, speakers might sometimes choose a more explicit version depending on context, such as:

• Infiltrația de apă inundă camera. = The water infiltration is flooding the room.
• Apa din infiltrație inundă camera. = The water from the leak is flooding the room.

But Infiltrația inundă camera is still a valid Romanian sentence.

Yes, both are feminine singular nouns.

You can see this from their dictionary forms:

• infiltrație = feminine
• cameră = feminine

Their definite singular forms are:

• infiltrația
• camera

Romanian feminine nouns very often take this kind of definite ending in the singular.

It would be:

• O infiltrație inundă o cameră.

That means:

• o infiltrație = an infiltration / a leak
• o cameră = a room

So the contrast is:

• Infiltrația inundă camera. = The infiltration floods the room.
• O infiltrație inundă o cameră. = An infiltration floods a room.

Yes, often you can.

Romanian present tense can correspond to several English present meanings depending on context:

• floods
• is flooding
• sometimes even does flood

So Infiltrația inundă camera could be understood in English as either:

• The leak floods the room
• The leak is flooding the room

The best choice depends on the broader situation.
