Why Learn Romanian?

static block photo

Romanian is the primary language of the Eastern Romance group of languages. It is originally derived from a dialect of Vulgar Latin and is the official tongue of Romania and Moldova. The language is also spoken in Hungary, Bulgaria, Ukraine, and Serbia, where it is an officially recognized minority language in those four countries. 25 million people speak Romanian as their first language, primarily in Central and Southeastern Europe, but also by ethnic Romanians from their diaspora – mostly in the United States, Canada, Venezuela, and Argentina. Romanian is spoken in eight main dialects and is one of the few languages that use two different writing systems: Cyrillic and Latin.

To learn the Romanian language, you need a user-friendly, accessible, intuitive platform – along with proven techniques to help with Romanian lessons. And that’s exactly what you’ll get with Pimsleur. Our instruction is based on the Pimsleur Method™, which combines four core concepts to learn Romanian the right way: Core Vocabulary, Principle of Anticipation, Organic Learning, and Graduated Interval Recall.

Our Premium Monthly subscription puts plenty of resources at your disposal to learn Romanian in a way that’s natural, intuitive, and goal-oriented. Fun, immersive exercises include Voice Coach AI pronunciation feedback, Speed Round Games, Reading Lessons, Digital Flash Cards, and much more. You’ll start by learning key Romanian words, phrases and structures, build your memory recall, and eventually start to speak the language. If you’d like to learn Romanian and have access to all other languages in the Pimsleur catalog, the All-Access Monthly package is for you. Get started today and study the Romanian language how it was meant to be!

The Best Way to Learn the Romanian Language

Pimsleur gets you learning Romanian by listening to the language, along with enjoyable active participation, which is key to your success. Similar to how you first learned to speak your native language, Pimsleur accelerates your goal to learn Romanian by hearing the language being spoken. This is the foundation for all our Romanian lessons and language exercises; the combination of meaningful listening and dynamic participation is much more effective than endless grammar lessons or hours of reading textbooks.

Our method cements the framework for a functional understanding of Romanian, and you’ll also acquire the correct pace, cadence, and pronunciation as you study the Romanian language. When you’re done learning Romanian with Pimsleur, you can do everything from ordering off a menu in Bucharest to conversing with a native Romanian speaker.

Why Choose Pimsleur for Online Romanian Lessons?

Here’s another reason why learners everywhere prefer Pimsleur to learn Romanian: comoditatea. (That’s “convenience” in Romanian) The Pimsleur app enables interactive ways to learn the Romanian language. You’ll learn Romanian while walking the dog, doing laundry, driving in the car, and elsewhere with hands-free online Romanian lessons. Of course, you can also learn Romanian on your desktop or laptop, too!

Common Questions About Learning Romanian

Is Romanian a difficult language to learn?

Learning Romanian is very difficult if you go the traditional route of heavy textbook work, uninspiring grammar exercise, and the like. Pimsleur takes a different approach to learn Romanian. We tap into your speaking and listening skills – the oral and aural capabilities – making Romanian lessons enlightening, informative, and fun. Learn the Romanian language the easier and faster way with Pimsleur!

How long does it take to learn the Romanian language?

The answer is up to you. In other words, Pimsleur gives you all the tools and resources to learn to speak Romanian. All you’re required to bring is effort, enthusiasm, and genuine curiosity as you study the Romanian language. Our entire Romanian course catalog – Speed Round Games, Build Your Skills, Lightbulb Moments and more – get you on the (literal) fast track to learn Romanian. In fact, you shouldn’t be surprised if you’re able to speak some basic Romanian phrases and key vocabulary words after your first lesson! Many of our customers learn the Romanian language in as little as 30 minutes per day.

What are the main challenges when learning Romanian?

Romanian is one of the Romance languages that have preserved ancient elements of its Latin roots, which is a challenge for novices, especially native English speakers. Three genders distinguish Romanian nouns: neuter, masculine, and feminine. Another obstacle as you study the Romanian language involves definite articles, which are placed after a noun, instead of before it, as English does. Language-specific grammar and syntax rules are potentially problematic, but Pimsleur’s collaborative, comprehensive approach ensures you’re learning Romanian with confidence, regardless of the challenges.

How important is pronunciation in learning Romanian?

Pronunciation is the key component to speak Romanian with clarity and purpose. And Pimsleur keeps you on track to sound out each word and phrase with the utmost precision and nuance, thanks to our Voice Coach with AI pronunciation feedback tool. It’s an important element of your education as you learn Romanian, considering the language has seven base vowels and several infrequently used ones. The language also heavily relies on stress accents, which are prominent in the final syllables of words. At times, you’ll have to use what seems like highly sophisticated, precise pronunciation in order to speak certain Romanian phrases. We’ll help you grasp basic, intermediate, and advanced Romanian phonology from lesson one onwards!

Are the Romanian lessons suitable for complete beginners?

We’ve designed our courses so anyone can learn Romanian the fast, efficient way – including complete novices. Zero previous language exposure is absolutely fine. You can learn Romanian as a complete beginner, or even with a baseline knowledge of the language. Our platform is accessible to all learners. Our customers love the Pimsleur app’s unmatched convenience. You can learn the Romanian language practically anywhere.
