Learn Romanian: Eu cumpăr fructul proaspăt din piață. - I buy the fresh fruit from the market.

In Romanian, the word for "the" (the definite article) attaches to the end of the noun instead of coming before it as a separate word. The base word is fruct (fruit), and -ul is the ending that means "the" for neuter singular nouns.

Why does the adjective proaspăt come after fructul?

Unlike English, Romanian adjectives usually come right after the noun they describe. So, "the fresh fruit" is constructed as fructul (the fruit) proaspăt (fresh).

The English translation says "from the market", but piață doesn't have a "the" attached to it. Why?

This is a very common Romanian rule you will see often. After many short prepositions like din (from/out of), în (in), or la (at), Romanian drops the "the" ending when talking about a general location. That is why it is just din piață instead of din piața.

Why use din for "from" instead of de la?

Both can mean "from", but din specifically means "from inside" (it is a combination of the words de and în). It is the standard preposition used when getting something out of a market (piață), store, or country.
