Etymology

Vrăjitor is built from the Romanian noun vrajă, meaning spell or charm, plus the agent suffix -tor, meaning one who does something. Vrajă itself entered Romanian from a Slavic source tied to sorcery and fortune-telling. The suffix -tor is inherited from Latin -tor, the same ending seen in many Romanian job and agent nouns.
