Proponitur

Proponitur is a Latin verb form derived from proponere, meaning to propose or to put forward. It is the present passive indicative, third person singular, and translates most directly as “he/she/it is proposed” or “it is proposed.” In Latin, the passive form is often used to report propositions or statements that someone else has put forward, sometimes in an impersonal sense.

In usage, proponitur appears in texts to indicate that a plan, argument, or proposition has been presented for consideration. It can function as a simple statement about what is being proposed or as part of a larger discourse about whether to accept or discuss the proposal. For example, hoc consilium proponitur means “this plan is proposed,” signaling that the proposal is under consideration.

Morphologically, proponitur is the present passive indicative of the verb proponere. The full present passive paradigm for this verb (in the singular) is proponor, proponeris, proponitur, and in the plural proponimur, proponimini, proponuntur. The form proponitur therefore belongs to the standard pattern of Latin present passive endings and is interchangeable in function with other passive forms when describing proposals in discourse.

In scholarly or medieval Latin, proponitur may appear in rhetorical or legal contexts to introduce a proposition for debate or judgement. Although the base meaning remains consistent, the passive construction emphasizes the proposition as something presented by another agent rather than as something actively stated by the speaker.
