Etymology

Romanian borrowed "video" in the twentieth century from French "vidéo" and English "video", both coined for television and recording technology. The root goes back to Latin "video", the first person singular of "videre", meaning "I see". The coinage paired it with "audio" ("I hear") to name devices that carried both image and sound.
