coïncideixo

Coïncideixo is a Catalan verb form of coïncidir, meaning to coincide, to meet at the same time and place, or to correspond or agree with something. It functions to describe events that occur simultaneously, places that align, or statements and beliefs that are in agreement with one another. The form coïncideixo is the first-person singular present indicative.

Origin and orthography: The verb derives from Latin concidere and entered Catalan as coïncidir. The diacritic over the i (ï) in coïncidir and coïncideixo marks a hiatus, ensuring the i is pronounced separately from the preceding o. This orthographic convention helps preserve the correct pronunciation and distinguishes the word from potential digraphs.

Usage: Coïncidir is used with various complements to express different senses of coincidence. For example: "El seu horari coincideix amb el meu" (His schedule coincides with mine) or "La teoria coincideix amb les proves" (The theory coincides with the evidence). It can take the preposition amb to indicate what is meeting or matching, and it can be followed by a clause with que to express agreement in opinion. The verb is common in formal, academic, and journalistic contexts.

Conjugation: In the present indicative, the forms include jo coïncideixo, tu coïncideixes, ell/ella coïncideix, nosaltres coïncidim, vosaltres coïncideu, ells/elles coïncideixen. Other tenses are formed regularly according to Catalan conjugation patterns for -ir verbs.
