Etymology
Amintească is the third-person present subjunctive of a aminti, a verb built from the prefix a- (from Latin ad-, "toward") and minte ("mind", from Latin mens, mentis). The verb literally means to bring something toward the mind. The subjunctive ending -ească marks third-person forms in this class of Romanian verbs, the same pattern seen in citească (may read) or vorbească (may speak).
