Etymology
Separat comes from Latin separatus, the past participle of separare, meaning to set apart. That verb is built from se- (apart, aside) and parare (to prepare, arrange). Romanian inherited the word directly from Latin, alongside the related verb a separa. The same Latin root gave nearly every Romance language its word for separate.
