Etymology
Parcare is the noun built from the verb a parca, to park, which Romanian borrowed from French parquer during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, a period when many urban and technical terms entered the language from French. The ending -are is the native Romanian infinitive suffix, which also regularly forms action nouns, so parcare literally means the act of parking. Its plural, parcări, follows the ordinary feminine noun pattern.
