Etymology
Aprobare is the noun form of the verb a aproba, borrowed by Romanian from Latin approbare (or reinforced through French approuver) during the wave of Romance relatinization in the 19th century. Approbare itself breaks down as ad- (toward) plus probare (to test, to judge good), from probus, meaning good or upright. The Romanian suffix -are simply mirrors the long infinitive ending, a common way Romanian turns verbs into abstract action nouns.
