incendis

Incendis is a Latin word form that can appear in classical texts. It is the second-person singular present active indicative of incendere, meaning "you burn" or "you set on fire." In this use, it functions as a verb and describes an action performed by the subject.

The verb incendere, from which incendis derives, means to set on fire, burn, or inflame. The root of this verb is shared with the related noun incendium, which denotes a fire or conflagration. From these roots, several modern terms have evolved in the Romance languages and English, such as incendio (Italian and Spanish for fire), incendier or incendiario in various languages, and incendiary in English.

In Latin literature, incendis appears as part of larger clauses describing burning actions or incendiary events. Its meaning depends on context and syntax, as with most verb forms in Latin. The form is not a standalone noun but a conjugated verb, so it is typically translated according to the surrounding words and the subject.

See also: incendium, incendiar, incendiary. These terms share the same semantic field related to fire and burning and illustrate how Latin roots have influenced many modern words denoting fire, burning devices, or acts of arson.
