Etymology
Romanian borrowed "cod" from French "code" in the nineteenth century, during the modernization of Romanian legal and administrative vocabulary. The French word traces to Latin "codex," originally a set of wooden writing tablets and later a bound book of laws. The sense narrowed over time from "book of rules" to the modern meanings of legal code, cipher, and identification number.
