Etymology
Revedere is the noun form of the verb a revedea, "to see again," built from the prefix re- (again) and vedea (to see), which comes from Latin videre. Romanian regularly turns a verb's long infinitive into an abstract noun, so revedere works the same way mâncare comes from a mânca. The phrase la revedere, literally "to the seeing-again," became the standard Romanian word for goodbye.
