Etymology
Romanian borrowed "planetă" from French "planète" in the 19th century, part of a wave of scientific vocabulary that entered the language during its modernization. The French word traces back to Greek "planētēs", meaning wanderer, a name given because planets appeared to move against the fixed backdrop of stars. The Greek term comes from the verb "planasthai", to wander or roam.
