Etymology
Pagină comes directly from Latin pagina, which referred to a column of writing or a sheet of papyrus. The Latin word is tied to the verb pangere, meaning to fix or fasten, since early written columns were thought of as fixed rows of text. Romanian kept the word almost unchanged from its Latin ancestor, unlike many other Romance languages that passed it through French.
