Etymology
Bancar is an adjective built on the noun bancă, meaning bank. Romanian formed it with the native adjective suffix -ar, likely reinforced by similar forms in French (bancaire) and Italian (bancario). Bancă itself comes from Italian banca, which originally meant the bench or counter used by money changers.
