nat

Where it comes from

Inherited from Latin nātus, from earlier gnātus, from Proto-Italic *gnātos, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵn̥h₁tós (“begotten, produced”), derived from the root *ǵenh₁- (“to beget, give birth”). The meaning in Romanian developed from that of "offspring" or "progeny" in relation to the parent. Compare Aromanian nat (“child”), also Occitan nada (“girl”).
