Etimologie[modificare | modificare sursă]
termenul poate fi găsit în Europa începând ca. din anul 1000
provine din basme, povești asociat cu atribuții de canibalism, și puteri supranaturale
din biblie provine termenul de vrăjitorie și pepdepsirea celor ce o practică
acest termen a fost mai precis conturat în actele de condamnare a vrăjitorilor din evul mediu, care procese erau considerate ca o măsură de salvare a unui suflet păcătos.

care to translate? Very interested

I got that but I was just asking myself if some language apart Romania use it too these days because all the others are way different than Vrăjitoare
>>
>>59763729
it may be a pre-roman word from dacians.

for example, "perro" (dog in spanish) is unique because it came from iberian, and there are only a bunch of words that did so
