Romanian borrowed "sentiment" from French in the nineteenth century, during the wave of modernization that reshaped Romanian vocabulary. The French word itself descends from Latin "sentire", meaning to feel or perceive. The noun suffix marks the result of that action, so the word literally denotes the thing felt.
