"Toamna este un anotimp cald și rece!"

Translation: Autumn is a warm and cold season!

[olb38]

Is it possible to be "autumn is a season warm and cold!?

[Davebarrosobess]

hot and warm should be both right answers

[PhilipNikolayev]

"Toamna este un anotimp cald și rece!" Is this a natural/common thing to say in Romanian? ("Autumn is a warm and cold season!" sounds strange in English.)

[iiai]

No, it is not. We say "Toamna sunt zile calde și zile reci". We say also "Toamna nu este nici cald nici rece" - to say we have a medium temperatures. The sentence expressed in this way is a contradiction.

[JohnGardne7]

In English, I would pair warm with cool and hot with cold.

[GeoMan2]

The idea is true but the way it (the sentence) is expressed is indeed a bit ambiguous in Romanian too.

Why cald is not hot
