Etymology
Romanian borrowed "aventură" from French "aventure" in the modern era, as part of a wave of French loanwords in the 19th century. The French word descends from Latin "adventura," meaning things about to happen, itself from the verb "advenire," to arrive or come about. That verb combines the prefix "ad-" (toward) with "venire" (to come).
