Etymology

"Uitați" is the second person plural of the verb "a uita", meaning to forget. The verb traces back to Vulgar Latin "oblitare", a frequentative form built on the perfect stem of Latin "oblivisci", to forget. Romanian kept this Latin verb while most other Romance languages replaced it with different roots, which is why the word looks closer to French than to Italian or Spanish.
