"Băiatul frumos este rus."

Translation: The handsome boy is Russian.

Why "The beautiful boy is Russian." is wrong?
Thx

It shouldn't be

[adw-joe]

Handsome and beautiful do not mean the same thing. This sentence should be accepted as "The beautiful boy is Russian."

Handsome would be better translated into Romanian by "chipeș "

John Lennon had a song "Beautiful Boy", about his little child. Beautiful should be accepted here

When I translate from Romanian "Baiatul frumos este Rus" to English, how should I guess what to choose handsome or beautiful?
Is there some hint?
