valabilvalidEtymology
Valoare comes from Latin valorem, the accusative of valor, itself from the verb valere, to be strong or to be worth something. Romanian regularly turned Latin nouns ending in -or, -orem into feminine nouns ending in -oare, the same pattern seen in culoare (color) and onoare (honor). The word entered or was reinforced in modern Romanian partly through French valeur during the 19th-century wave of Romance relatinization.
