Etymology
Romanian borrowed "meniu" from French "menu", which started as an adjective meaning small or detailed before becoming a noun for a detailed list of dishes. French "menu" traces back to Latin "minutus", meaning small or diminished, past participle of "minuere", to lessen. The word entered Romanian in the nineteenth century alongside other French restaurant and dining vocabulary.
