Etymology
Romanian "accepta" comes from French "accepter", which traces back to Latin "acceptare", a frequentative form of "accipere" (to receive, take). "Accipere" itself breaks down into "ad-" (toward) plus "capere" (to take, seize). The word entered Romanian in the 19th century as part of a wave of French and Latin borrowings that modernized the language's vocabulary.
