I don't understand this one, shouldn't it be mai tanara decat fratele lui Sebastian cu un an? mica is smaller, not younger............. pisses me off that this is so inflexible, I'd like to hear the imput of a native Romanian speaker . In English if I say she is smaller, that means her stature not her age.
well Andrew please read the comments Andrei has posted....apparently he is a Romanian who is either one of the tutors of Dl or someone who is studying his own language....(??)! as additonal info, i understand yr frustration as i have noticed that the composers of such courses are not always native speakers...i am following Spanish & Italian also thru Dl and i have often noticed the oddities applied for translated sentences. Dl is "good"for learning words and grammar!! you should not try to the logic...just learn the words by heart!
