concis

Concis is a term that may refer to the masculine singular form of the French adjective concis, meaning concise or succinct. In French grammar, concis describes language or writing that is brief and to the point. The feminine singular form is concise; the masculine plural is concis; the feminine plural is concises. The word derives from Latin concisus, meaning cut up or shortened, and entered French in the medieval period.

In English-language contexts, concis is rarely used as a native word, but it may appear in discussions of French grammar, translation, or stylistic analysis. It is sometimes encountered as a proper noun or brand name in non-linguistic contexts, though such uses are diverse and not standardized.

As a surname, Concis may occur in records in French-speaking regions, though no single widely recognized figure is associated with the name in a universal sense. In any case, its primary usage remains tied to the linguistic meaning of concise and succinct.
