concreted
Made into stone
Concreted is the past tense of concrete used as a verb, meaning covered or paved with concrete: They concreted the driveway last summer.
Less commonly, it means made solid or unified into a mass: Over time, theite sediments concreted into rock.
The figurative sense—making abstract ideas concrete—rarely takes this form.
