+ ==Pronunciation==
+ * Classical: [kɔŋˈki.e.oː]^(Wiktionary)

+
+ ==Forms==
+ '''concieō''' (present infinitive conciēre, perfect active concīvī, supine concitum); second conjugation^(Wiktionary)
+ A fourth-conjugation present ''conciō'', ''-īre'' is far more common, with ''concītus'' beside ''concitus''.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879)^(TLL)
+
+ ==Etymology==
+ It is [[af|la|con-|cieō|t2=to set in motion, summon]].^(OLD 2012)^(Wiktionary)^(TLL) De Vaan derives ⟨cieō⟩ from [[ine-pro|*(ḱ)ei(h₂)-|t=to start to move]], cognate with [[grc|κίνυμαι|tr=kínumai|t=to be moved]]; in Classical Latin the simple verb was replaced by its frequentative [[citō]].^(de Vaan 2008)
+
+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==
+ De Vaan dates ⟨cieō⟩ from Plautus,^(de Vaan 2008) who has the south wind that will stir up every wave, and someone who has “raised an enemy at home: his wife is very fierce”.^(OLD 2012)
+
+ ==Semantic evolution==
+ It is to stir up or set violently in motion, and to muster: Lucretius' Jupiter stirs up darkness and roaring, and Livy and Tacitus use it of raising troops.^(OLD 2012) It is also to stir up trouble, quarrels and war, as in Plautus and Afranius, and to arouse an emotion: Terence's single word that roused anger between two women.^(OLD 2012) Of people it is to rouse to action or anger, incite.^(OLD 2012)
