Remarks
If the sport has an instrument (like
a ball, for instance), the verb used in front of these names of sports
is "to play" (a juca).
Example: Eu
joc fotbal / tenis / baschet (I play football / tennis /
basket ball).
The verb "a
juca" (to play) has the following forms in the
Present Indicative:
eu joc, tu
joci, el/ea joacă, noi jucăm, voi jucați, ei/ele joacă.
In all the other situations, we use the verb "to do" (a face)
Example: Eu
fac schi / înot (I do ski / swimming)
The verb "a face"
(to do) has the following forms in the Present Indicative:
eu fac, tu
faci, el/ea face, noi facem, voi faceți, ei/ele fac.
The general phrase "I do sport"
is formed with the verb "to do":
Eu fac sport
(I do sport)
