Etymology

Romanian borrowed the word directly from English in the twentieth century, along with the sport itself. It kept the English spelling and a pronunciation close to the original, unlike older loans that got fully respelled. It joined a small group of sport names in Romanian, like fotbal and baschet, that entered the language the same way.
