How Do You Spell CONCEDED?

Pronunciation: [kənsˈiːdɪd] (IPA)

The first syllable has a short "u" sound, followed by a long "e" sound. The "c" is pronounced like "k" and the second syllable has a short "i" sound, followed by a long "e" sound.

CONCEDED Meaning and Definition

1. "Conceded" is an adjective that refers to an act, decision, or acknowledgment made by an individual, usually in response to a dispute, argument, or competition. It signifies the act of yielding, admitting or accepting the truth, validity, or superiority of a given point, argument, or circumstance. To concede is to give up or surrender one's position, opinion, or claim, often in recognition of an opponent's strength or the persuasiveness of their argument.

   In a confrontational context, conceding may involve reluctantly accepting defeat or acknowledging that one's standpoint is untenable. It implies a certain degree of submission or compromise, whether it is done willingly or reluctantly. By making concessions, an individual or group may seek to establish a degree of harmony, avoid further conflict, or demonstrate a willingness to cooperate and find common ground.

   "Conceded" can also be used more broadly in non-contentious situations, such as in a general admission or acceptance of a fact or circumstance. It embodies the recognition or acknowledgement of a reality or an outcome that is deemed undeniable or manifest.

   Overall, "conceded" highlights the act of accepting, yielding, or acknowledging the truth or superiority of a counter-argument or a prevailing situation, often resulting in the relinquishment of one's position, claim, or opinion.

Etymology of CONCEDED

The word "conceded" comes from the Latin word "concedere", which is a combination of the prefix "con-" (meaning "together" or "with") and the verb "cedere" (meaning "to go" or "to yield"). "Cedere" itself is derived from the Proto-Indo-European root "*ked-" or "*kad-" (meaning "to fall" or "to give way"). Over time, "concedere" gained the meaning of "to yield, give in, or grant", and this is how the word "conceded" came to signify admitting or acknowledging an opponent's victory or argument.
