Etymology
Romanian borrowed "a proceda" from French "procéder" in the 19th century, during the period when Romanian vocabulary was heavily reshaped along Romance lines. The French verb itself descends from Latin "procedere," built from "pro-" (forward) and "cedere" (to go, to yield). The word entered Romanian as part of a wave of administrative and legal terminology.
