Romanian male surnames
One of the unique features of the language of this country is the lack of differences between Romanian names and surnames. If we consider word formation and morphological features of these words, their full coincidence is revealed. Where the name or surname is located is determined on the basis of two indicators.
- Word order in various speech situations. For example, in written official or colloquial speech, the surname will come first, followed by the name. In vernacular or books, the word order is reversed.
- Abbreviations or affectionate forms have only names. Surnames are always used only in full.
Thus, when determining Romanian male names and surnames, it is necessary to clearly distinguish between situations and sources of their use.
Conclusion
Recently, the tendency to give newborns unusual, unique names is gaining momentum. Romanian male names are increasingly paying attention. Sound and smooth, special, they are suitable for discriminating parents.
