Călătorie comes from the Romanian noun călător, meaning traveler. Călător itself is built on cal, the Romanian word for horse, from Latin caballus. In earlier times, to travel usually meant to go on horseback, so the word for traveler literally pointed to someone riding a horse. Over time călătorie broadened to mean any journey, on foot, by car, or by plane.
