îmbina

Probably from a Vulgar Latin root *imbināre, from *bināre (“duplicate”) (compare Italian binare, Friulian imbinâ), from Latin bīnī. Alternatively, possibly from a related root*bināti (compare Italian binati (“twins”), Aromanian binats (“twins”)); the expected result in Romanian, *binați, may have been interpreted as a verbal adjective and crossed with îngemăna. A variant form înghina also exists, as well as an antonym desghina and variant dezbina, with various other etymologies having been proposed for each.^[1]
