Questions & Answers about Noi iubim primăvara.

Do I have to include noi (we) in this sentence?
No, you can just say Iubim primăvara. In Romanian, the verb ending (the -m in iubim) already tells us who is doing the action. Adding noi just adds a little extra emphasis, like saying "We love the spring."
Where is the word for "the" in primăvara?
In Romanian, "the" is attached to the end of the word instead of being a separate word before it. The base word for "spring" is primăvară. To say "the spring", you change that final ă to an a, making it primăvara.
Why does the verb iubim end in -m?
In Romanian, the letter -m at the end of a verb almost always means "we" are doing the action. The base form of "to love" is a iubi. When you want to say "we love", you add -m to get iubim.
Can I use a iubi (to love) for things like food, just like in English?
A iubi is a strong emotional word. It is perfectly natural to use it for people, pets, or seasons (like primăvara). However, for everyday things like a great pizza or a movie, Romanians usually stick to a plăcea (to like), even when English speakers would casually say "I love it".
