întâlni

/ɨn.tɨlˈni/

Rhymes with -i

Where it comes from

From în- + tâlni, probably from Hungarian talál, specifically the infinitive találni (as is common in other verbs of Hungarian origin).

Probably displaced an inherited term *înuiba from Latin obviō multiple centuries ago, as is seen in Megleno-Romanian nuib and Istro-Romanian ăniurbå.
