    Why isn't it valid "They do not understand"?

        Can you elaborate for me why it should be accepted? Thanks!

          In Romanian, the subject is not mandatory in a sentence, as in English. So, the form ”Nu înțeleg” can be ”Eu nu înțeleg”=”I do not understand” or ”Ei nu înțeleg”=”They do not understand”. It is clear?

            I did know about that, but I'm still grasping my conjugations -- I/Eu and They/ei/ele share the same conjugation? (I should probably go back and work on my foundations)

            Thanks!

              Conjugation to the present time, negative form: ”Eu nu înțeleg, tu nu înțelegi, el/ea nu înțelege, noi nu înțelegem, voi nu înțelegeți, ei nu înțeleg”.
