Etymology
Romanian borrowed "impact" from French "impact", which itself comes from Latin "impactus", the past participle of "impingere", meaning to strike or drive against. "Impingere" is built from "in-" plus "pangere", to fix or fasten. The word entered Romanian as part of the wave of French and Latin-based neologisms in the 19th century.
