Etymology

Romanian borrowed "psiholog" from French "psychologue" during the 19th-century modernization of its vocabulary, when many scientific and professional terms entered the language through French. The French word itself derives from Greek "psyche" (soul, mind) and "logos" (study, discourse), the same combination that gives English "psychology." The "-log" ending marks a person who studies or speaks about a subject, a pattern shared with words like "biolog" and "sociolog."
