"I forgive you because you are my son."

Translation: Eu te iert întrucât ești fiul meu.

[Lixmage]

Should "te iert din cauză că ești fiul meu" be graded wrong?

[itisivitaminc]

yes

[itisivitaminc]

it should be te iert deoarece esti fiul meu

[Fabfifties]

What are the differences?

[-masteRice-]

Hey David! Wassup! Fancy meeting you here... Didn't exactly expect that...

[Schattenparker]

For people like me who expected a dative îți instead of te (because of forgive, German: vergeben, French: pardonner qc. à qn.) :
a ierta is related to "liberate someone" (direct object = accusative), as initial l- often becomes i- in Romanian, see Latin levare -› a lua -› eu iau.

[PhilipNikolayev]

The Russian equivalent is not razdat' (give away) but prostit' (to forgive).

[Alexandre76899]

Hi ! In Russian, I'd say прощать / простить кого ;)

[itisivitaminc]

this sentence says i forgive you because you are my son not you are my son because i forgive you

[razvan.marin]

Is the later an accepted answer?

[itisivitaminc]

translated in Romanian, yes
