Etymology
Romanian borrowed "artificial" from French "artificiel", itself from Latin "artificialis". The Latin word combines "ars, artis" (skill, craft) with a form of "facere" (to make). Romanian took in this word during the 19th century wave of French and Latin borrowings that modernized its vocabulary.
