"Bărbatul vorbește cu un bou."

Translation: The man speaks with an ox.

[DinaLu207]

Maybe he was drinking țuică.

[Zerr_]

Is this a reference to anything or just another weird Duolingo sentence?

[GeoMan2]

Kein Referenz, the man is crazy.

[An3Bar]

this actually is a funny one. We call a stupid person, or one who behaves badly "bou"... kinf of jerk. The man talks to a jerk.

[IanWitham1]

It could be a reference to Paul Bunyan and Babe.

[Aurora2698]

sounds like a fun conversation

[Monica684041]

especially the pronouncement is funny...

i hear the voice saying :

"Barbatul vorbeste cu un BEU" ...

[4u1e]

Does this mean 'speaking to'?

[Monica684041]

yes, the romanian sentence can be translated :

"the man speaks with an ox" ... or ...

"the man is speaking to an ox"

[4u1e]

Mulțumesc!

[Pumky1031]

Well, what if the ox speaks, or the man thinks the ox is speaking? XD

[RobertoBrasil19]

Is "bó" or "bou"? In the lesson appears " bó"

[ScarletAJ]

It should be "bou".
