Questions & Answers about Vă sun în legătură cu anunțul.
Can I use despre instead of în legătură cu to mean "about"?
Does Vă mean I am calling more than one person?
Is the person being called a direct or indirect object in this sentence?
It is a direct object. The verb a suna (to call) takes the accusative case in Romanian. While vă looks the same in both dative and accusative forms, it acts as a direct object here. If you were calling a friend informally, you would use the accusative pronoun te and say Te sun.
Why is it anunțul with the definite article instead of just anunț?
In Romanian, many prepositions force the noun to drop its definite article. For example, if you used despre (about), you would say despre anunț to mean "about the ad". However, the preposition cu allows the noun to keep its definite article, so "with the ad" becomes cu anunțul.
