An interesting... hybridization is "a conchide" = to conclude.
Especially in the most recent times, more and more people
have used "a conclude", not being satisfied by the...
Romanianized "a conchide". Earlier you had "concluzie"
(conclusion), but only the verb "a conchide". I wonder
what kinda verb would be yanked from "ocluzie": "*a oclude"
or "*a ochide". We'll wait and see what "vox populi" is up to. :-)
