    ***** Usage notes

    Romanian adjectives are usually placed after the noun they modify. However, [ro] in the sense of “first” always _precedes_ its corresponding noun. Conversely, in the other senses it follows the noun as expected.

    As with [en], [ro] is considered an intrinsically definite adjective and is usually articulated. Indefinite use is also possible: [ro].
