Etymology
Romanian borrowed "solid" from French "solide" in the modern period, as part of the wave of Western Romance vocabulary that reshaped Romanian in the 19th century. French "solide" itself descends from Latin "solidus", meaning whole or firm. The word entered Romanian alongside many other French-mediated Latinisms used to modernize the language.
