Etymology

Fermă entered Romanian from French ferme, meaning farm. The French word goes back to Medieval Latin firma, a fixed payment or rent, tied to land leased under a fixed contract. That Latin noun comes from firmus, meaning firm or fixed, the same root behind English words like firm and confirm.
