Questions & Answers about Mâine este marți.

Why isn't marți capitalized like days of the week are in English?

In Romanian, days of the week like marți (Tuesday) and luni (Monday) are treated as regular nouns and are not capitalized unless they appear at the very beginning of a sentence.

If tomorrow is marți, how do I say today is Monday to complete the sequence?

You would say Astăzi este luni. Luni is Monday, and it comes right before marți in the standard Romanian week, which starts on Monday.

Can I use the shorter word e instead of este in this sentence?

Yes! In everyday spoken Romanian, people very often shorten the verb and say Mâine e marți. Both este and e are correct and mean the exact same thing here.

Do I need to add any words before marți, like saying tomorrow is the Tuesday?

No, when you are simply stating what day it is, you do not use any extra articles or words. Just like in English, you place the day of the week directly after the verb.
