Questions & Answers about Băiatul merge pe stradă fluierând.
How do we get the word fluierând from the dictionary form of the verb?
Would fluierând change if the sentence was about a girl or multiple children?
The English translation says "on the street", so why isn't it pe strada with the definite article at the end?
In Romanian, after most prepositions like pe (on) or în (in), you drop the definite article from the end of unmodified feminine nouns. That is why it is simply pe stradă instead of pe strada. You would only keep the article if you were describing the street, for example: pe strada lungă (on the long street).
