încadreaz

Încadrează is a Romanian verb meaning to place within a frame or boundary, to enclose, or more broadly to situate something within a larger context. The infinitive is a încadra, and the verb is transitive, typically taking a direct object and, in figurative uses, a prepositional phrase such as într-un context or într-o categorie. The term derives from cadru, meaning frame, with a productive prefix that conveys enclosure or inclusion.

In literal use, încadrează refers to putting an object inside a frame, as with a photograph or painting: Încadrează tabloul în ramă. In figurative use, it means to frame or contextualize something: Încadrează problema într-un context istoric. It can also mean to categorize or place someone or something within a category: Încadrează persoana într-o categorie. The word is common in journalism, education, art, and everyday speech when describing organization, analysis, or presentation of information.

Common collocations include a încadra în context, a încadra într-o categorie, and a încadra în limite. Semantically related terms are cadru (frame) and context; a încadra (to frame/to place within). The concept of framing is also used in media theory to discuss how information is organized to shape interpretation. See also context, classification, and framing in communication studies.
