Etymology

Romanian borrowed "concept" from French "concept" in the 19th century, during the period when Romanian intellectuals reshaped the language with Western vocabulary. The French word traces to Latin "conceptus", the past participle of "concipere", meaning to take in or grasp mentally. That verb combines "com-" (together) with "capere" (to take, seize).
