Etymology

Confirma entered Romanian in the modern era, mainly through French confirmer, reinforced by the learned Latin form confirmare. Latin confirmare is built from con- (together, thoroughly) and firmare (to make firm), itself from firmus (strong, solid). The word belongs to the large layer of Romance vocabulary that Romanian adopted in the 18th and 19th centuries to modernize its lexicon alongside older, inherited Latin stock.
