Concluido

Concluido is a participle and adjective used in Spanish and Portuguese to indicate that something has been finished or brought to a close. It derives from the verb concluir in both languages, itself from the Latin concludere, meaning to shut up or end. The word functions as a past participle and, in both languages, as an adjective that agrees with the noun it modifies.

In Spanish, concluido describes completed actions or states. As a past participle it forms perfect tenses with haber (ha concluido, había concluido). It can also function as a predicative adjective: “el proceso está concluido” or “el informe concluido,” depending on emphasis on result rather than process. The feminine form is concluida and the plural forms are concluidos or concluidas, depending on gender.

In Portuguese, concluído (written with diacritics) serves similarly as the past participle of concluir and as an adjective. It agrees with gender and number: o projeto está concluído, as etapas concluídas. The corresponding noun form is conclusão (conclusion). The term is common in formal writing, law, and journalism to denote something that has been completed or resolved.

Related terms include conclusivo, conclusiva (conclusive) and conclusão (conclusion). The distinction between concluído (finished) and conclusão (the act or result of concluding) is maintained in both languages. In usage, concluir often refers to bringing something to a decision or end, while concluir as a verb can also mean to derive a conclusion from evidence in logical or rhetorical contexts.

Concluido is not typically used as a standalone proper noun; it is primarily a grammatical and lexical term within Spanish and Portuguese.
