Concludendi

/ˌkɒŋkluːˈdɛndaɪ/ noun

Definition

A Latin term used in logic and philosophy referring to things that are to be concluded or inferred.

Etymology

Latin form (plural gerundive of concludere), meaning 'things to be concluded.' Used primarily in medieval and scholastic philosophical texts.

Kelly Says

Medieval scholars loved Latin gerundives like this because they precisely captured the *idea* of an action—'things destined to be concluded' packed more meaning than simple English words could. It's intellectual cargo that never fully transferred into English.
