Etymology

Depozit entered Romanian in the 19th century, part of the wave of French and Latin-based vocabulary that modernized the language. It traces to Latin depositum, the neuter past participle of deponere, meaning something set down or entrusted for safekeeping. The French form dépôt likely shaped the Romanian spelling and pronunciation directly.
