Etymology

Activitate entered Romanian from French activité, which itself comes from Late Latin activitas, activitatis. That noun is built on the Latin adjective activus, meaning active or effective, derived from the verb agere, to do or to drive. The word reached Romanian in the 19th century as part of a broad wave of French and Latin borrowings that modernized Romanian scientific and administrative vocabulary.
