Etymology
The verb behind this form, "a uita" (to forget), comes from Latin "oblitare," a frequentative built on "oblivisci," the deponent verb for forgetting. That Latin verb is traditionally linked to "levis," smooth, on the idea that a forgotten thing has been rubbed smooth or effaced from the mind. "Uiț" itself is not a separate word: it is an everyday texting shorthand for "uiți," the standard second-person singular present form, with the barely audible final -i dropped in writing.
