Etymology
Romanian borrowed "computer" directly from English in the second half of the 20th century, as personal computing spread. English "computer" itself comes from Latin "computare", meaning to calculate, built from "com-" (together) and "putare" (to reckon, think). The Romanian word kept its English spelling and pronunciation almost unchanged, unlike the older, more assimilated synonym "calculator".
