In the words "va, doamna, buna, ma, sa"
the letter "a" is pronounced like in the English word
"Sir". In the words "placere, ce, faci, place",
"ce" and "ci" are pronounced like in "teacher"
and in the words "cat" and "cand" the letter
"a" sounds like in the Russian "you".
You may think that Romanian is easy. Well it is
not at all, because there are some specific sounds whose pronunciation
cannot be associated with their spelling. For example, English speaking
people find it difficult to pronounce the Romanian r.
It sounds really funny uttered by them because their r
as you well know is specific.
To continue with, French speaking people may find
it difficult to cope with the Romanian sound h, because
they simply cannot pronounce it. As far as the sound represented
by the letters â or î is concerned, we can say that
it is the most difficult sound for English speakers, whereas for
Russians it can be quite easy because they have the equivalent sound,
represented by the vowel in the Russian equivalent of "you".
Anyway, these basic phrases in Romanian can be
quite easy, but you need interaction though with native speakers
in order to develop fluency and to acquire specific accent and not
to sound funny.
Furthermore, any Romanian language trainers, even
if they have to teach only basic phrases in Romanian, they must
be aware of each trainees learning style. For example, some
people learn better when the subject is directly related to their
life, others need charts and diagrams; in addition, some learners
need practicing with a partner or work in groups, or learn a craft
or skill with members of a community.
To conclude, before trying to teach a foreign
person even basic phrases in Romanian, you must check his or her
learning style and get ready for an adventurous but funny journey
to the universe of an exciting language.
