acensar

Ido

Etymology

Borrowed from English ascend, French ascendre, Italian ascendere, Spanish ascender. The d was replaced with s (from Latin ascensus) so not to cause confusion with acendar.

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /at͡senˈsar/

Verb

acensar (present acensas, past acensis, future acensos, conditional acensus, imperative acensez)

(transitive, intransitive) to go up, ascend, mount
