Etymology

Mișcare is the noun formed from the verb a mișca, meaning to move, with the suffix -are that turns a verb into an action noun. Romanian etymological dictionaries treat the origin of a mișca itself as uncertain, so no confirmed deeper root is given here. The word entered common use to cover both physical motion and, later, organized social or political movements.
