Etymology

Notă comes from Latin nota, meaning a mark or sign used to identify or record something. The Latin word is tied to the verb noscere, to know, since a mark helps you recognize or remember a thing. Romanian kept the word close to its Latin form and its core sense: a mark set down to record or signal something, whether a school grade, a sound, or a written line.
