Etymology
Câștig is a noun formed directly from the verb a câștiga, meaning to win or to earn. The origin of the verb itself is disputed among Romanian etymologists, with proposals pointing to Latin roots but no settled consensus. Because of this uncertainty, no specific Proto-Indo-European root can be stated with confidence.
