Etymology
Mișcăm is the first-person plural present of a mișca, meaning to move. Romanian dictionaries mark the origin of a mișca as uncertain; it is not a clean inheritance from a single Latin verb, and proposals linking it to a Latin frequentative form remain disputed. Because the source is unsettled, no reconstructed root can be stated with confidence.
