coïncideixes

Coïncideixes is the second-person singular present indicative form of the Catalan verb coïncidir, meaning to coincide, match, or correspond. It is used when addressing someone whose statements, events, or facts align with another reference point, such as time, data, or reality.

Etymology and orthography: The verb coïncidir comes from Latin concīdēre or concīdĭre, built from con- “together” and cadere “to fall,” originally indicating something that falls together or occurs at the same time. In Catalan, the present tense forms retain the coïncid- stem. The letter i carries a diaeresis (ï) in coïncideixes and related forms to mark a hiatus and ensure correct pronunciation: coïncidir is pronounced with a separate syllable after co-.

Conjugation and forms: Coïncideixes is used with the subject you (informal singular) in present time. Related present forms include jo coïncideixo, ell/ella coïncideix, nosaltres coïncidim, vosaltres coïncideixeu, and ells/elles coïncideixen. The verb is a regular -ir verb in its present tense conjugation, though orthography with the diaeresis is a distinctive feature of certain forms. A noun form is coïncidència, meaning coincidence or concurrence.

Usage and nuances: Coïncideixes can describe temporal alignment (two events happening at the same time), factual agreement (a statement matching evidence), or alignment of opinions or plans (your view corresponds with others). Common constructions include coïncideixes amb or coïncideixen amb + [noun phrase], and expressions like “coïncideixen les dades amb les teves afirmacions.” The term the noun coïncidència is often used to refer to a coincidence or concurrence more generally.
