Etymology

Industrie entered Romanian in the 19th century from French industrie, part of a wave of French borrowings that modernized Romanian vocabulary. French industrie itself descends from Latin industria, meaning diligence or activity. The word's spread across Europe tracks the spread of industrialization as a concept, not just a practice.
