Etymology
Tăietură is built from the verb tăia, meaning to cut, plus the suffix -tură, which turns a verb into a noun naming the result of the action. Tăia descends from Vulgar Latin taliare, meaning to cut or split. The same Latin verb, filtered through Old French taillier, gave English the word tailor, someone who cuts cloth.
