The Romanian dictionary DEX accepts the form "engleză" as both adjective and noun, though it might be less used when expressing nationality. On the other hand, the "-oaică" forms are only nouns.<BR/><BR/>To make it clear, let's take "englez":<BR/>One can say: "Sunt engleză" or "Sunt englezoaică". Romanians are more used with the "-oaică" form. The dual usage is more obvious in the plural (and they sound equally usable and are equally used by Romanians):<BR/>Ele sunt engleze. = Ele sunt englezoaice.<BR/><BR/>However, not all the nationalities have that form. Indeed, most used forms are the ones with -oaică, for those nationalities for which they exist.<BR/><BR/>I will come back to this in a later lesson.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Florin.Florinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05182390657776651676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3110175157197388843.post-2214110517932411802008-03-03T20:41:00.000+02:002008-03-03T20:41:00.000+02:00Hi.Are all of the feminine forms of nationalities ...Hi.<BR/><BR/>Are all of the feminine forms of nationalities in the pdf correct? My girlfriend says that, for example, "englez(ă)" should be "englez(oaică)".<BR/><BR/>Otherwise, no complaints.
