writing numbers…..punct si virgula = point and comma
For americans – just use the reverse
american system = 10,000.00
romanian system = 10.000,00
Most of the world depicts dates as day/month/year and time is on the 24 clock. The US military uses this system as well. In romania dates and time are shown in the following examples -
12 Septembrie 2010
12/09/2010
12/09/10
No pm or am….when writing time use the 24 hour clock. When speaking about time you are not constricted to the 24 hour clock. Almost always you would only use 13, 14 or one of the 24 clock numbers when speaking about an event
Some examples
Someone approaches you and asks…
Cât e ceasul? What time is it?
E ora unu. It is one o’clock.
Your friend asks you what time the opera starts, you would use 19 instead of 7.
La ora 19 (nouasprezece)
Although you could use either in this situation you get the point, if you really need to be clear about the time an event begins then use the 24 clock.
