What are some examples of sentences using the orthographic units voi/v-oi, va/v-a, vom/v-om, vor/v-or?
In the sentence "Voi merge la magazin să cumpăr pâine" the pronoun "voi" is used to refer to a group of people who are the subject of the sentence. It indicates that "I" or "we" will go to the store to buy bread. Another example is "V-ați întâlnit înainte de eveniment?" where the pronoun "v-ați" is used to address a second person plural, indicating a group of people that the speaker is talking to. This suggests that "you" (plural) have met before the event.

For example, "Vom merge la film diseară" (We will go to the movies tonight) or "Ei vor cânta în concertul de mâine" (They will sing in tomorrow's concert). These orthographic variations of the pronouns "voi" (you), "va" (you, singular or formal), "vom" (we), and "vor" (they) are commonly used in Romanian to indicate different grammatical forms and verb conjugations.
