Etymology
Mireasă is the feminine counterpart of mire, the Romanian word for groom. Both are usually traced to the Latin adjective mirus, meaning wonderful or marvelous, reflecting the old custom of treating the wedding couple as figures to be admired. The feminine ending -easă, also seen in words like crăiasă and preoteasă, marks status or role.
