Etymology
Taxă entered Romanian in the 19th century through French taxe and German Taxe, both from Medieval Latin taxa. That form goes back to the Latin verb taxare, meaning to assess or set a value, itself a frequentative of tangere, to touch. The word arrived alongside a wave of Western European administrative and legal vocabulary during Romania's modernization.
