Etymology

The word comes from "sânge" (blood), which descends from Latin "sanguis". Romanian added the verb-forming suffix "-era" to turn the noun into a verb, the same pattern seen in "lacrimă" becoming "a lăcrima" (to weep). The Latin origin of "sanguis" itself is disputed among linguists, so no PIE root is given here.
