Etymology
Romanian borrowed "dezvolta" from French "développer" in the 19th century, during a wave of French loanwords that reshaped Romanian vocabulary. French "développer" itself comes from Old French "desveloper," built from "des-" (undoing) and "voluper" (to wrap), tracing back to a Vulgar Latin word for husk or wrapping. Romanian speakers refit the French word with the native prefix "dez-," which comes from Latin "dis-" and marks reversal or undoing.
