Etymology
Romanian borrowed "aeroport" from French "aéroport" in the twentieth century, as air travel became common. The French word itself was built from "aéro-" (air) and "port" (harbor), on the model of "seaport". It entered Romanian as a modern technical term rather than evolving from Latin roots directly.
