Etymology
Romanian borrowed "psihic" from French "psychique" during the 19th-century modernization of its vocabulary, when many scientific and medical terms entered the language through French. The French word itself traces to Greek "psychikos" (ψυχικός), an adjective built on "psyche" (ψυχή), meaning soul, mind, or breath. The deeper origin of Greek "psyche" is debated among linguists, so no secure Indo-European root is given here.
