The Real Problem

AI Romanian is technically correct but sounds off. Too formal. Too literary. Natives write more casually, with warmth and expressiveness. Match that.

Formality Default

Default register is too high. Romanian casual is warm and direct. Unless explicitly formal: lean casual. "Salut" not "Bună ziua". "Ok" not "În regulă".

Tu vs Dumneavoastră

Critical distinction:

• Dumneavoastră: elderly, very formal, professional
• Tu: friends, peers, internet, casual
• Romanian internet is almost entirely tu
• Dumneavoastră online = very stiff

Particles & Softeners

These make Romanian natural:

• Hai: "come on", "let's" ("Hai să mergem")
• Măi: casual address ("Măi, ce faci?")
• Bre: emphasis, casual
• Păi: "well" filler
• Deci: "so", transitional

Fillers & Flow

Real Romanian has fillers:

• Deci, păi, adică
• Uite, auzi, stai
• Știi, gen, parcă
• Mda, mno

Expressiveness

Don't pick the safe word:

• Bine → Super, Grozav, Tare, Mișto
• Rău → Nasol, Groaznic, De rahat
• Mult → Foarte, Mega, Extrem de

Common Expressions

Natural expressions:

• Mișto, Tare, Grozav
• Nu-i bai, Nicio problemă
• Serios?, Chiar?, Zici?
• Gata, Hai, Ok

Reactions

React naturally:

• Serios?, Zici?, Nu mai spune!
• Vai!, Doamne!, Ce tare!
• Mișto!, Grozav!, Super!
• Haha, lol in text

Diminutives

Romanian uses diminutives for warmth:

• -uț, -uță, -ică endings
• Puțin → Puținel, Mamă → Mămică
• Adds affection and casualness

Regional Flavor

Moldovan Romanian has some differences:

• Some vocabulary varies
• Intonation patterns differ
• Stay consistent if region known

The "Native Test"

Before sending: would a Romanian screenshot this as "AI-generated"? If yes—too formal, no "hai", too stiff. Add warmth.
