We have repeatedly
\nsaid Romanian is an inflection-rich language, which means that, as a rule,
\nthere is an agreement between the modified noun and the adjectival modifier.
\nHowever, there are quite a few adjectives that do not change their form. Some
\nof them are derived from adverbs, while others are borrowed names of colours. <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Here are several
\nsuch adjectives:<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Cumsecade=decent<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Roz=pink <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Gri=gray<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Albastru=blue<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Albastru-deschis=light
\nblue<\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
Maro=brown <\/p>\n
\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
