Etymology
Structură entered Romanian from French structure, itself from Latin structura. The Latin noun comes from struere, meaning to build or pile up, with the suffix -ura marking the result of an action. The word reached Romanian as part of the wave of French and Latin scholarly borrowings that reshaped the modern Romanian vocabulary in the 19th century.
