After briefly presenting the two paradigms of etymology – « étymologie-origine » vs. « étymologie-histoire » –, the article sets forth the main directions of Romanian etymological research throughout the 20th century and the evolution of the relation between the etymological researches at the (micro)-monographic level and their counterpart at the lexicographical stage. The author states his opinions on the fundamental requirements of modern etymological science. The main aim of the article is to precisely evaluate the concept of « multiple etymology » and its influence on present-day Romanian lexicography.
