conceptum

English

Adjective

conceptum (comparative more conceptum, superlative most conceptum)

  1. Objectum for concepts; describing attraction to concepts or relationships with concepts.

Noun

conceptum (plural conceptums)

  1. A person who is attracted to an concept and/or in a relationship with a concept.

Usage notes

Conceptum is similar to objectum as a label and is from the same community, but often describes attraction to things that are not physical tangible objects. For example, attraction to a sound, a song, or a website might be considered conceptum, despite those things being perceivable and not just a vague abstract thought. Conceptum can be considered a subset of objectum or its own umbrella of terms.

Latin

Noun

conceptum

  1. accusative singular of conceptus
