Etimologie SPA

Se zice ca SPA vine de la « sanitas per aquam » adica sanatate prin intermediul apei.

Mai e si o statiune balneara in Belgia.

Niste baieti de pe wiki zic ca nu e bine si ca nu e cum am zis io in prima fraza:
"It has been suggested, with no evidence, that the word is an acronym of various Latin phrases such as "Salus Per Aquam” or "Sanitas Per Aquam" meaning "health through water". These are "backronyms" — back-formed acronyms. Acronyms arose in the twentieth century, and were not used in classical times." mai multe aici.
