Questions & Answers about După părerea mea, nutriția sănătoasă previne boala.
Why do nutriția and boala have definite articles attached when the English translation just says 'healthy nutrition' and 'illness'?
In Romanian, abstract nouns and general concepts require the definite article when used as the subject or direct object of a sentence. While English drops the article to make a general statement, Romanian literally says 'the healthy nutrition' (nutriția) and 'the illness' (boala).
Could I just say în părerea mea instead of după părerea mea?
That would be a direct translation from English, but it sounds unnatural in Romanian. To say 'in my opinion' or 'according to me', Romanian always uses the preposition după (which normally means 'after') combined with the articulated noun, forming după părerea mea.
What verb family does previne belong to?
It comes from a preveni (to prevent). Because it shares the root of a veni (to come), it conjugates exactly the same way. It is a standard fourth-conjugation verb ending in '-i' that does not take the '-esc' suffix.
Why is the possessive mea placed after părerea?
Unlike in English, Romanian possessive adjectives almost always follow the noun they modify. When they do, the noun before them must take a definite article. That is why we have părere plus the definite article -a to make părerea, followed by mea.
