Etymology
Ridicat is the past participle of the verb a ridica, meaning to raise or lift. The verb is inherited from spoken Latin, but Romanian etymologists disagree on the exact Latin source form, so no single ancestor form is firmly established. The word has been in continuous use in Romanian since its earliest attested stages.
