Questions & Answers about Ea economisește pentru vacanță, deși salariul ei nu este mare.

Why is ea included? I thought Romanian often drops subject pronouns.

That’s right: Romanian often omits subject pronouns because the verb ending already shows the person.

• economisește already means he/she saves
• So Economisește pentru vacanță can already mean She is saving for vacation

Here, ea is included for one of these common reasons:

• emphasis: She is the one saving
• contrast: maybe someone else is not saving, but she is
• clarity in context

So:

• Ea economisește pentru vacanță = She is saving for vacation
• Economisește pentru vacanță = also correct, just less explicit
