Questions & Answers about Femeile coboară încet.

The lesson is about verbs ending in -i and -î. What is the infinitive form of coboară?
The dictionary form is a coborî (to go down or descend). When conjugating it for they (ele), it becomes coboară. A handy trick for this verb is that the he/she form and the they form are exactly the same: ea coboară and ele coboară.
Why does the verb a coborî get an -oară ending here?
Many Group 4 verbs ending in -rî (like a coborî) change their vowels and take the -oară ending for the third-person forms. It is a very common pattern to watch out for when learning verbs that end in -î.
How do we build the word femeile?
The basic word for woman is femeie. The plural form for women is femei. To say the women, we attach the feminine plural definite article -le to the end, creating femeile.
Why doesn't încet have an adverb ending like '-ly' in English?
In Romanian, many adjectives are used as adverbs without changing their form at all. So încet can mean either the adjective slow or the adverb slowly, depending on context. Because it describes an action here, it translates to slowly.
