Etymology

Pachet entered Romanian in the nineteenth century from French paquet, part of a wave of French borrowings that reshaped Romanian vocabulary during that period. French paquet itself traces back to a Germanic root meaning a bundle or bound load, the same source that gave English pack. The word kept its concrete sense of a wrapped bundle and later picked up abstract uses, such as a package of laws or services.
