Etymology
Romanian "a comanda" comes from French "commander," which itself descends from Latin "commandare," a combination of the prefix "com-" and "mandare," meaning to entrust or put into someone's hands. The word entered Romanian during the nineteenth century as part of a wave of French borrowings that reshaped much of the modern vocabulary. "Comand" is simply the first person singular present form of that verb.
