Etymology
Coordonată entered Romanian in the 19th century through French coordonnée, the feminine form of coordonné, the past participle of coordonner, meaning to coordinate. That French verb was built from Latin cum, meaning together, and ordinare, meaning to arrange or put in order. The word arrived in Romanian as part of a wave of French-based scientific and administrative vocabulary during the country's modernization.
