Sănătos comes from Latin sanitosus, an adjective built on sanitas, meaning health. The root sanitas itself derives from sanus, meaning healthy or sound. Romanian kept this Latin word through direct inheritance, unlike many other Romance languages, which built their word for healthy straight from sanus rather than sanitosus.
