Etymology
Bară entered Romanian through French barre, itself from Vulgar Latin barra, a word of obscure origin that some scholars trace to Gaulish. The same Vulgar Latin root gave rise to related words across the Romance languages and to English bar. No secure Indo-European root has been established for it.
