Etymology

Dansezi comes from the Romanian verb a dansa, meaning to dance. Romanian borrowed this verb from French danser in the 19th century, during a period when Romanian intellectuals imported many French words to modernize the language. The origin of the French word itself is debated among etymologists, with some pointing to a Frankish root and others finding the trail unclear. Romanian added its own verb endings to the French stem, producing forms like dansezi for the second person singular.
