    I thought that the verbal form of ‘interception’ may have once been “interceive” but in American Football, commentators used ‘intercept’ and ‘intercepted’ erroneously and that caught on and also stuck. ‘Interception’, ‘Conception’, and ‘Reception’ come from the Latin word ‘caper’ (to take). Is it logical that they all mean the same suffix in english?
