Etymology

Chimic entered Romanian from French chimique, the adjective built from chimie, chemistry. The root word chimie itself traces back through Latin to Greek khēmeia, the old term for alchemy, which likely passed through Arabic al-kīmiyā on its way to Western Europe. Romanian added the native adjectival suffix -ic to fit the word into its own morphology.
