Etymology
Teorie entered Romanian from French théorie, itself from Latin theoria, borrowed from Greek theoria. The Greek word meant contemplation or a viewing, tied to the idea of a spectator observing something. Romanian took the word during the 19th-century wave of French and Latin borrowings that modernized its vocabulary.
