disciplinä

Disciplinó is the third-person singular pretérito indefinido (simple past) form of the Spanish verb disciplinar. It denotes that someone applied discipline in the past, such as correcting conduct, enforcing rules, or training behavior. The action can be carried out by a teacher, coach, supervisor, or any authority figure. As a past tense form, disciplinó agrees with masculine or feminine subjects in the él/ella/usted form (él disciplinó, ella disciplinó, usted disciplinó).

Etymology and meaning derive from the noun disciplina, which in turn comes from Latin disciplina, meaning instruction or training. The verb disciplinar shares this root and carries connotations of order, rules, and training, rather than merely punishment.

In usage, disciplinó appears in educational, sports, military, and organizational contexts. It can describe literal corrective measures or the imposition of standards and routines. Examples: “El profesor disciplinó a la clase por interrumpir” and “La entrenadora disciplinó al equipo para respetar el código de conducta.” The form is neutral and widely understood in Spanish-language texts.

Notes: disciplinó is a verb form and not a noun. Other related forms include disciplinar (infinitive), disciplína or disciplina (noun, meaning discipline or training), and disciplinaron (they disciplined). The choice of subject (él, ella, usted) determines the exact pronoun reference but not the spelling of disciplinó itself.
