Etymology

Romanian borrowed "porno" from French, where it arose as a clipped form of "pornographique" and "pornographie". Those French words go back to Greek "pornographos", built from "pornē" (prostitute) and "graphein" (to write). The short form spread through many European languages in the twentieth century as informal media and advertising shorthand.
