"Fructul este pe masă."

Translation: The fruit is on the table.

Why isn't it "pe masa" - are definite articles omitted after certain prepositions?

(Would "on a table" be "pe o masă"?)

Mulțumesc :)

Exact! On a table = pe o masă.
A table = o masă, tables = mese
The table = masa, the tables = mesele

[relox84]

Definite articles are ommitted after all prepositions except cu, except if there is an adjective modifying the noun.

Pe masă= on the table
Succes!
