Etymology

Mesaj entered Romanian in the 19th century from French message, part of a broad wave of French borrowings that modernized Romanian vocabulary. French message descends from Latin missus, the past participle of mittere, meaning to send. The word arrived alongside many other French terms tied to communication and administration.
