Etymology
Binecuvântat is the past participle of a binecuvânta, built from bine (well, good) and the old verb a cuvânta (to speak, related to the noun cuvânt, word). The compound mirrors Latin benedicere, bene plus dicere, well plus to say, and Slavic blagosloviti, which is built the same way. Romanian formed its own version of this pattern rather than simply borrowing benedictus.
