fă-o
The Romanian phrase for 'do it' is fă-o.
It is specifically used as a slang term meaning 'to have sex'.
Meaning: to have sex (verb)
Did you know?
- To avoid the sexual slang of fă-o, a Romanian speaker wanting to say 'do it' in a purely task-oriented way might use ocupă-te de asta, which literally means 'occupy yourself with this'.
- Because fă-o is a gender-specific imperative, the phrase changes to fă-l if the object being 'done' is masculine, which can completely change the slang connotation or clarify the meaning in a non-sexual context.
- Romanian creates the romantic expression a face dragoste by combining the mundane verb for 'doing' or 'making' with the word for 'love'.
