Romanian

Etymology

According to the Romanian etymological dictionary, borrowed from Latin corpus (through borrowing German or Russian intermediate Korpus in the 18th century and French corps later in the 19th century). The Megleno-Romanian equivalent, also corp, seems to be directly inherited from Latin, however.[1]
