Etymology
Romanian "a simți" comes from Latin "sentire," meaning to feel or perceive. It is one of the core inherited verbs that survived from spoken Latin into Romanian rather than arriving as a later borrowing. The same Latin root produced related words across the Romance languages and, through French and Latin borrowings, several English words about perception and emotion.
