Etymology
Cazinou entered Romanian from French casino during the nineteenth century, part of a large wave of French loanwords that reshaped Romanian vocabulary at the time. French took the word from Italian casino, a diminutive of casa, meaning house, originally used for a small country house or social club. Romanian respelled the French pronunciation with a z and added a final u, the typical way it nativizes French words ending in a vowel.
