Etymology
Romanian "practică" comes from French "pratique" and Latin "practica", which trace back to Greek "praktikē", the feminine form of "praktikos" (fit for action, effective). That Greek adjective derives from the verb "prattein" (to do, to act, to accomplish). The word entered Romanian in the modern era through French and Latin scholarly influence, alongside other Romance vocabulary.
