Etymology

Romanian borrowed "trusă" from French "trousse", a word for a bundle or case holding a set of tools or supplies. The French term traces to Old French "trousser", meaning to bundle or tie up. Romanian absorbed it during the nineteenth century, a period when French supplied much of the country's modern technical and household vocabulary.
