Etymology
Spațiu comes from Latin spatium, meaning distance, extent, or a course for running. The word entered Romanian through the normal inheritance of Latin vocabulary in the region, and it kept its core sense of extent or room. The same Latin root gave rise to related words across the Romance languages and to "space" in English.
