Etymology

Durut is the past participle of a durea, meaning to hurt or to ache. The verb comes from Latin dolere, which meant to feel pain or to grieve. Romanian kept the verb almost entirely as an impersonal construction, so durut appears mostly inside compound past tenses like m-a durut, it hurt me.
