Etymology
Romanian borrowed "a ignora" from French "ignorer" in the 19th century, when Romanian scholars reshaped the language's vocabulary along Latin and French lines. The French word itself comes from Latin "ignorare," built from the negative prefix "in-" and "gnarus," meaning knowing or acquainted with. So the core sense is literally "to not know," which shifted to "to deliberately not notice."
