Etymology

Toată is the feminine singular form of tot, from Latin totus, meaning whole or entire. The Latin word's own origin is not firmly established; some scholars link it to Osco-Umbrian forms, but the connection is not certain. Romanian kept the word as a basic quantifier, and it split into four forms depending on the gender and number of the noun it modifies: tot, toată, toți, toate.
