Etymology

Aduc is the first person singular present of a aduce, from Latin adducere, a compound of ad (toward) and ducere (to lead). The Latin verb meant to lead or bring toward a place, and Romanian kept that core sense of bringing something to someone. The infinitive a aduce descends directly from Vulgar Latin usage in everyday speech.
