Etymology
Repara comes from Latin reparare, a combination of the prefix re-, meaning again, and parare, meaning to prepare or make ready. The word passed into Romanian as part of the inherited Latin vocabulary base of the language. The same Latin verb gave rise to close relatives across the Romance languages and to the English word repair.
