semneaza

Semnează is a Romanian verb form meaning to sign. It is the third-person singular present indicative and the imperative form of the verb a semna, whose infinitive is a semna. It is used when someone signs a document, approves a contract, or authorizes an action by placing a signature. Examples: El semnează contractul. Semnează aici.

The root semn means sign, and from it derive related nouns such as semn (sign) and semnătură (signature). The verb is conjugated according to standard Romanian patterns: eu semnez; tu semnezi; el/ea semnează; noi semnăm; voi semnați; ei/ele semnează. The past participle is semnat, and the noun form semnătură refers to a signature. The ASCII form semneaza is commonly used in environments that do not support diacritics.

In usage, semnează appears in official and everyday contexts, including contracts, forms, letters of authorization, and consent documents. The concept of electronic signatures is expressed as semnătură electronică, which may be recognized under applicable electronic-signature regulations. Depending on the jurisdiction, a handwritten or electronic signature can be required to validate an agreement.

Note that semnează is distinct from semnala, which comes from the same root but means to signal or indicate something. While both share the root semn-, semnează specifically denotes the act of signing, whereas semnala refers to drawing attention or reporting information.
