Common Insects and Flying Bugs
When spending time outdoors or keeping your windows open, you will inevitably encounter various insects (insecta). Some of the most common flying visitors include the bee (albina) and the fly (musca).
| Any insect scares me. | Orice insectă mă sperie. |
| The bee flies from flower to flower. | Albina zboară din floare în floare. |
| The fly entered through the window. | Musca a intrat pe fereastră. |
Bites and Stings
Some insects can be a bit more bothersome or even painful. You will certainly want to know the words for the mosquito (țânțarul) and the wasp (viespea). To describe being bitten or stung by one of these insects, use the verb a înțepa.
| The mosquito always stings me. | Țânțarul mă înțeapă mereu. |
| The wasp is a dangerous insect. | Viespea este o insectă periculoasă. |
| The bee stings you if you scare it. | Albina te înțeapă dacă o sperii. |
On the Ground and in the Air
Not all bugs are pests. In the park or garden, you might spot a hardworking ant (furnica), a colorful butterfly (fluturele), or a worm (viermele) in the grass. Of course, you might also find a stray beetle or bug (gândacul) hiding indoors.
| Any ant is very hardworking. | Orice furnică este foarte harnică. |
| The blue butterfly flies over the river. | Fluturele albastru zboară peste râu. |
| The bug is hiding under my bed. | Gândacul se ascunde sub patul meu. |
| The bird caught a worm in the grass. | Pasărea a prins un vierme în iarbă. |
