- Abasic — A medical term describing a person affected by abasia, characterized by the partial or total inability to walk or maintain an erect posture, despite muscular strength, sensation, and coordination of the limbs being completely preserved in the recumbent position. It is encountered in organic neurological conditions (frontal or cerebellar lesions, extrapyramidal syndromes) or in psychogenic conversion disorders (classical hysteria, presenting as astasia-abasia syndrome).
- Abasia — A neurological and neuropsychiatric symptom characterized by the total or partial inability to walk, whereas muscular strength, coordination of movements in the recumbent position, and sensation in the legs remain completely intact. It can have an organic cause, linked to lesions of the frontal lobe, cerebellum, or vestibular pathways, or a functional (psychogenic) cause, encountered within conversion (dissociative) disorders, where it is frequently associated with astasia (the inability to stand).
- Today — A regional, shortened, or truncated phonetic variant of the time adverb 'astăzi'; it indicates the ongoing day. It is found in popular dialects across certain regions of the country (especially in Transylvania or Moldavia) or in old literary texts, where the final vowel 'i' is completely elided for reasons of rhythm, local speech patterns, or articulation economy.
- Today — On the current day, in the immediate present; a fundamental adverb of time indicating the ongoing 24-hour period; in a broad or figurative sense, it denotes the current era, modern times, contemporary society, or the historical present.
- Astasia — A neurological or psychiatric symptom manifested by the total inability or severe difficulty to maintain an erect position of the body (standing up), without the patient presenting actual muscle paralysis; it is caused by lesions in the cerebellum, frontal lobe, or by psychogenic conversion disorders, often appearing in structural correlation with abasia (inability to walk), forming the clinical syndrome known as astasia-abasia.
- The todays — A rare substantivized form, of a poetic or stylistic nature, derived from the adverb of time 'astăzi'; it denotes the succession of present days, the current moments lived intensely, or the totality of instances making up contemporary reality, utilized in modern literature to emphasize the fragmentation or fluidity of the present time.
- Astaso- — A scientific combining form used as a prefixoid in international medical terminology to introduce the concept of astasia (inability to stand erect); it originates from Greek and serves exclusively to form compound words within the sphere of motor pathology and neurology (such as astasia-abasia, the syndrome combining the inability to stand and to walk).
- Astasobasophobia — A rare and complex phobic disorder manifested by an intense, irrational, and pathological fear of standing up (astasia) and walking (basasia), frequently associated with the obsessive fear of losing balance and falling down, in the absolute absence of any organic motor or neurological lesion that would physically justify this inability.
- Today — An extremely rare adverbial regionalism, specific to certain dialects in Transylvania or Maramureș, used with the meaning of 'today', 'nowadays', or 'currently'. It represents an altered phonetic variant or an archaic compound form preserved exclusively in the speech of elders or in local folklore collections to place an action in the current time.
- Today — A temporal adverb indicating the current day, the day now passing, or the immediate present; today. In a broad or philosophical sense, it designates the current era, modernity, or the present stage of society. Used as a noun, it represents the abstract concept of the current moment, serving as a baseline chronological pillar of reference relative to the past and the future, ensuring a clear and clean temporal orientation in daily communication.
