cunună

• кунунэ (cunună) — post-1930s Cyrillic spelling
• corună

Inherited from Latin corōna, from Ancient Greek κορώνη (korṓnē). Doublet of coroană, which was a borrowing.

The /r/ to /n/ phonetical evolution is due to a hypercorrection of the rhotacisms which existed in some dialects of Old Romanian.
