Etymology
Romanian "a considera" comes from Latin "considerare", by way of French "considérer". The Latin verb combines the prefix "con-" (together, thoroughly) with a root traditionally linked to "sidus" (star, constellation), though scholars still debate that link. If it holds, the original sense was to examine the stars closely, which later broadened to mean weighing something carefully in the mind.
