Etymology

Romanian borrowed "plan" from French "plan" during the nineteenth-century modernization of its vocabulary, when many technical and administrative terms entered the language from French. French "plan" in turn comes from Latin "planus", meaning flat or level, since a plan was originally a flat drawing or layout of a building or terrain. The sense then widened from a physical drawing to any organized scheme for future action.
