Questions & Answers about Duminică sunt acasă cu familia.
Why isn't there a word for "on" before Duminică?
In Romanian, you don't need a preposition like "on" before days of the week to say something happens on that day. You just use the name of the day itself, so Duminică alone means "On Sunday".
Are days of the week usually capitalized in Romanian?
No, days of the week like luni (Monday) or duminică (Sunday) are normally written with lowercase letters. Duminică is only capitalized here because it is the first word of the sentence.
Who is the subject of sunt in this sentence?
Why is "at home" translated as one word, acasă?
Acasă is a special adverb that means "at home" all by itself. You don't need to use a separate preposition for "at" (like la) when talking about being at your own house.
