Etymology
Romanian borrowed "client" from French "client" in the 19th century, during the wave of Latinate and French vocabulary that modernized the language. The French word descends from Latin "cliens" (genitive "clientis"), meaning a person under the protection of a patron. In ancient Rome, a "cliens" depended on a more powerful "patronus" for support in exchange for loyalty and service.
