Etymology
Romanian borrowed "transplant" from French and German in the modern era, both of which built it from Latin. The Latin base is "trans-" (across, beyond) plus "plantare" (to plant, to set in the ground), which itself comes from "planta" (sprout, sole of the foot). The word entered medicine in the 19th and 20th centuries to describe moving living tissue from one place to another, first in botany and later in surgery.
