Etymology
Logodnică is the feminine form of logodnic, itself built on logodnă, meaning engagement or betrothal. Romanian borrowed logodnă from a Slavic source related to Bulgarian godezh, engagement, and Old Church Slavonic god, meaning a fitting or appointed time. The same Slavic root gives Russian god, year, since a year marks a fixed span of time.
