Evaluate Your Romanian Proficiency - Language

This Romanian test checks how well you read, inflect, and understand this Latin-rooted Balkan language.

The Romanian test blends vocabulary, reading comprehension, and grammar questions built around the traits that make the language distinctive. You work with nouns that carry three genders, including a neuter class that behaves as masculine in the singular and feminine in the plural. A signature feature is the definite article, which attaches to the end of the noun rather than standing before it, so many items ask you to attach or recognise these suffixed forms.

You also handle case, since Romanian keeps a merged genitive and dative that other Romance languages have lost. Verb tasks cover conjugation across tenses and the subjunctive mood, which Romanian uses frequently. Passages mix everyday speech with more formal writing, and comprehension questions test whether you follow meaning through its Latin-derived yet Balkan-flavoured vocabulary.

Romanian is a Romance language, descended from the Latin spoken in the eastern Roman provinces, and it is the official language of Romania and Moldova. It stands somewhat apart from its western Romance relatives because centuries of contact with Slavic, Hungarian, Greek, and Turkish neighbours shaped its vocabulary and some of its grammar. It is written in the Latin alphabet with a few extra letters marked by diacritics for sounds particular to the language.

Unusually for a Romance tongue it retains noun cases and attaches the definite article to the end of the word. Despite these Balkan features, its core vocabulary and verb system remain recognisably Latin, so speakers of Italian, Spanish, or French often spot familiar roots throughout Romanian text. The Common European Framework of Reference, spanning A1 through C2, is the standard used for Romanian, and your score here suggests roughly where you land on that ladder.

Effective preparation means learning noun gender together with each word, since the neuter class and the attached article depend on it, and practising the subjunctive because Romanian reaches for it where English would use an infinitive. Reading short articles and listening to spoken Romanian help you tune into its rhythm and Slavic-tinged loanwords.

A higher result shows you manage the enclitic article, case forms, and mood shifts smoothly, while a weaker one usually flags the grammar rather than vocabulary. Let the section breakdown steer whether reading, grammar, or listening should headline your next study block.
