Etymology
Romanian borrowed "spiritual" from French "spirituel", reinforced by the learned Latin form "spiritualis". Both trace back to Latin "spiritus", meaning breath or spirit, from the verb "spirare", to breathe. The word entered Romanian during the nineteenth century as part of a wave of French and Latin-based vocabulary that modernized the language.
