"Grădina botanică este lângă cinematograf."

Translation: The botanical garden is near the cinema.

[auswy]

"Botanic garden" (without the -al) should also be accepted – e.g. in Sydney there is the "Royal Botanic Gardens".

I can't call a cinematograf a movie theatre? we need a native English speaker working on this language. the only person I've ever heard say 'cinema' was my father -- who was Romanian. :)

[LukeMadhan]

English people NEVER say movie theatre - we're efficient with our syllables :v

[ericdsouza4]

Cinema is the English word

[LukeMadhan]

Why is cinematograful incorrect? Doesn't cinematograf just mean cinema?

[Hi_From_Tom]

Nouns following prepositions in Romanian assume definite case despite being written without a definite article. E.g. "towards the center" is "spre centru", not "spre centrul".

[LABv7L1N]

'Botanical gardens' would be used

[deactivated user]

I agree, in English botanical gardens is invariably used in the plural

[Ciaran_Conneely]

"Cinema" is always used in Ireland.... Never heard anyone say "movie theatre".

I've seen comments about how Duolingo uses primarily U.S. English translations
