Etymology

Cură entered Romanian in the modern era as a borrowing from French cure and German Kur, both meaning a course of medical or spa treatment. Those words go back to Latin cura, meaning care or concern. The plural cure follows the regular pattern for Romanian feminine nouns ending in -ă, the same shift seen in casă becoming case.
