Etymology

Rezervare is the action noun built from the verb a rezerva, "to reserve," which Romanian took from French réserver, itself from Latin reservare. Reservare is re- ("back") plus servare ("to keep, guard"). The suffix -are simply turns the verb into a noun naming the act itself, so rezervare literally names the act of holding something back for someone.
