Etymology
Aruncare is the noun formed from the verb a arunca, meaning to throw. The origin of a arunca itself is not settled. Romanian dictionaries typically list it as uncertain, sometimes compared to Latin eruncare, meaning to weed out or pull up, with the sense later shifting toward throwing or casting away. The suffix -are is the regular Romanian ending that turns a verb into a feminine action noun.
