A Romance Language That Doesn’t Behave

Romanian looks like a Romance language.
It feels like it should act like Francés, Italianoo Español.
But the moment you try to use it — it surprises you.

Articles come after the noun (băiatul, fata).
Verbs have a rhythm of their own.
Some words feel Latin (război, important, limbă) — others sound Slavic or even Balkan.

Romanian is a language that hides its contrasts under a familiar surface.
And that’s exactly what makes it so rewarding to learn.

What Makes Romanian Different

Yes, it’s Latin in origin. But Romanian has spent centuries surrounded by Slavic languages, Ottoman influence, and a unique cultural space. The result?

- Post-positioned articles (not the boypero boy-the)
– Words that sound like Russian, but mean something else
– Vocabulary that includes Turkish, Greek, Hungarian layers
– Grammar that surprises you when you least expect it

You don’t just “learn Romanian” — you decode it.

Learning Romanian Online Means Learning to Shift

Learning Romanian online works especially well — because it gives space for questions, comparison, and reflection.

En Escuela de idiomas Levitin, we build your Romanian step by step — not through repetition, but through contrast.

– If you already speak another Romance language, we show you where your instincts help — and where they don’t.
– If you come from a Slavic language, we connect patterns you didn’t realize you knew.
– If you speak English, we guide you through the logic that holds the contrasts together.

You don’t need to memorize — you need to notice.
And that’s what online lessons with a real teacher are for.

Romanian Is Logic, Contrast, and Character

You don’t need to “master” Romanian to enjoy it.
You need to start listening to how it balances its roots and its surroundings.

That’s what we help you discover — not only how to speak, but how to understand what the language es.
