Duo este bufniță!
Da!
Does the "f" in "bufniță" become phonetically assimilated to the following "n," and thus become a "v" in pronunciation? I clearly hear "buVniță" in the audio, not "buFniță." Thanks in advance!
Does "bufnita" literally mean little owl? If so, what does "bufa" or "bufna" mean? Thanks!
No, it is not a diminutive. An older word that can also be used is "buhă"
Ok.. Interesting. Mulțumesc!
