obtinebis

Obtinebis is a form from the Latin verb obtineō, meaning to obtain or hold. As a lexical item, it is the second person singular future indicative: you will obtain. In classical Latin, it would appear in contexts describing a future action performed by "you" (the subject). The form is part of the regular conjugation pattern of the verb, and its presence illustrates the use of person and number in Latin verb morphology.

Derived from obtineō + the future tense suffix -bis, it shares roots with related verbs and with modern Romance languages that derive from Latin.

Outside strict Latin grammar, obtinebis occasionally appears as a coined name or title in literature, gaming, or branding. In those contexts, its meaning is intentionally ambiguous, often chosen for its phonetic quality or its original sense "you will obtain."

Because it is primarily a grammatical form, there is no established field-specific definition beyond its use in Latin. When encountered in texts, it is typically interpreted as the future second-person singular.
