### The Partitive Preposition "dintre"

When you want to talk about a portion of a larger group—such as "many of them," "a few of the buyers," or "the best among the options"—Romanian uses the partitive preposition *dintre* ("of" or "among").

Use *dintre* right before a plural pronoun to express a quantity or fraction of that group:

{{item:1165150}}

{{item:1165156}}

### Using "dintre" with Plural Nouns

When using *dintre* before a plural noun, the noun must be articulated (take the attached definite article) if it is followed by a modifier, such as an adjective or possessive word:

{{item:1165161}}

{{item:1165173}}

Without modifiers, the plural noun stays in its unarticulated form:

{{item:1165154}}

### Proportions and Comparisons

You can use *dintre* to express the proportion of a specific demographic within a larger segment:

{{item:1165152}}

{{item:1165158}}

You can also use it to rank items or single out a target from a broader list of options:
