Etymology

Romanian borrowed "artă" from French "art" in the nineteenth century, during a period when Romanian intellectuals reshaped the language along Romance lines. The French word itself descends from Latin "ars, artis", meaning skill or craft. The Latin term traces back to a Proto-Indo-European root tied to the idea of fitting or joining things together.
