concluístes

Concluístes is a verb form that appears in some Romance-language varieties as the second-person singular preterite of the verb concluir, meaning “you concluded.” The spelling and diacritics suggest a historic or dialectal pronunciation, and the form is not part of the current standard orthographies of the major Romance languages. In linguistic discussions it is often described as a regional or historical variant that illustrates how past-tense endings can align with the second-person singular across different languages.

Etymology and relation to other forms. The form derives from the Latin root concludere, through the Romance verb developing trajectories of -ir/-er verb conjugations in the preterite. Variants with similar meaning in modern standard languages include Spanish concluir with tú concluiste, Portuguese concluir with tu concluíste, Catalan concloure with tu conclusiste or conclusistes, and Galician concluir with tú concluíches. The exact spelling and accent placement differ across languages and historical periods, reflecting distinct phonological and orthographic rules.

Morphology and usage. As a preterite, it encodes a completed action in the past addressed to the second person singular. The apparent form concluístes exemplifies how diacritics and endings can vary in earlier or regional spellings. Because it is not a standard form in contemporary standard varieties, its occurrence is primarily of interest to philologists, paleographers, and those studying regional or historical Romance-language texts.
