Etymology
Creștere is the noun form of the verb a crește, to grow, which comes from Latin crescere. Romanian often builds abstract nouns straight from the Latin infinitive, so creștere keeps the old -ere ending instead of using a separate suffix. The same Latin root spread across the Romance languages and into English through borrowed words.
