Learn Romanian: Pisica doarme pe balcon. - The cat sleeps on the balcony.

In Romanian, the word for a cat is pisică. To say 'the cat', the definite article (the word for 'the') is attached to the end of the noun. For feminine nouns ending in -ă, the ending changes to -a, making it pisica.

The verb 'to sleep' is a dormi. Why does it change to doarme here?

Romanian verbs often have small vowel changes in their root when conjugated. For a dormi (to sleep), the vowel o changes to oa when talking about he, she, or it. So, 'it sleeps' becomes doarme.

The English translation says 'on the balcony', but where is the word for 'the' in pe balcon?

Romanian typically drops the definite article ('the') after simple prepositions of place like pe (on) or în (in). You just use the preposition and the base noun, so pe balcon translates naturally to 'on the balcony'.
