constringev.

/kənˈstrɪndʒ/

Etymology: < Latin constringĕre to tie tightly, draw tightly together, < Latin con- together + stringĕre to draw tight. This seems to have been introduced to represent the Latin verb more closely in form and sense than was done by the historical representative constrain, which came through French. In more recent times constrict has been used as an equivalent.

1. transitive. To draw or squeeze together as by an encircling force; to compress; = constrict v. 1 ? Obsolete.
