Usage notes

[edit]

Nou is one of the adjectives which, following the French model, are often preposited to nouns instead of the usual Romanian postposition. This is typical of more literary language.

It is possible, but not necessary, for this to introduce subtle distinctions in meaning. For example,o nouă carte could mean “a newly published book”, whileo carte nouă would be “a newly bought or newly printed book”.
