Etymology
The Romanian noun notă comes from Latin nota, meaning a mark, sign, or written note. Latin nota traces back to the verb noscere, to come to know, so a nota was originally something marked down so it could be recognized again. The form nota in this card is simply notă plus the feminine definite article -a, which absorbs the final ă.
