concebidos

Concebidos is the past participle of conceber in Spanish and Portuguese, used as an adjective meaning "conceived" or "begotten." It agrees in gender and number with the noun it modifies (concebido/concebidos; concebida/concebidas). In everyday usage, conceived is seldom used as a stand-alone noun; when it appears as a noun phrase, it can refer to individuals who have been conceived, though this is uncommon outside technical or biographical contexts.

Etymology and form: Concebidos derives from Latin concipere, with the past participle conceptus. In both Spanish and Portuguese the root concep- has extended to a range of figurative uses, including ideas or plans that have been conceived or formulated, as in "un plan concebido con cuidado" (a carefully conceived plan).

Contexts and usage: In religious texts, the form appears in phrases describing conception, such as "concebido por el Espíritu Santo" (conceived by the Holy Spirit) in Christian liturgy and theology. In academic or educational writing, the term may be used to describe aspects related to pregnancy or embryology, though more precise terms are often preferred to distinguish stages such as embryo or fetus.

Language status and related forms: Concebidos is not a common proper noun or title; it principally functions as a regular participial form. Related forms include concebir (to conceive), concebido (conceived), concepción (conception), and concepto (concept). The feminine and plural forms are concebida/concebidas and concebidos/concebidas, respectively.
