Etymology

Sângeros comes from the Romanian noun sânge, meaning blood, plus the adjectival suffix -os, which marks abundance or quality, roughly "full of." Sânge descends from Latin sanguis, sanguinem. The origin of the Latin word itself is not firmly settled, so no reconstructed root is given here.
