punere

Punere is a feminine Romanian noun derived from the verb a pune (to put). It designates the act or process of putting, placing, or bringing something into a particular state, position, or function. In a broad sense, punere can refer to making something operative, starting a procedure, or introducing something into a system.

The term is used across many domains. In everyday language it appears in phrases like punerea în practică (putting into practice) or punerea în aplicare a unui plan (the implementation of a plan). In technical and event contexts it appears as punerea în funcțiune (commissioning or bringing into operation) and punerea în scenă (staging or directing a theatrical production). In law and administration, it can relate to the execution or enforcement of decisions and regulations, such as punerea în aplicare a unei hotărâri sau a unui act normativ. In linguistics and rhetoric, punerea în evidență or punerea în relief are used to denote emphasis or highlighting of a detail.

Morphology and usage notes: punere is a count noun; the plural form is puneri, with the definite plural punerile. It commonly occurs with prepositions that specify the area or domain of the act, for example punerea în practică, punerea în funcțiune, punerea în scenă. The word functions as a general label for acts of initiation, installation, or formalization, and its precise meaning is determined by the accompanying phrase.
