Etymology
Serial entered Romanian from French sériel and English serial, both built on Latin series, meaning a row or chain of linked things. The Latin noun comes from the verb serere, to join or link in sequence. In Romanian the word first described anything published or broadcast in linked installments, and it settled into everyday use as the plain word for a TV series.
