I believe your translation of cerca was corrected in another post. Is this article discussing the fence being constructed along the US/Mexican border?

Katie Wells said:

it said los detractores del proyecto dijeron que la cerca ofrece una vision que no se CONDICE con un pais fundado por inmigrantes. in the spanish article that i just tried to translate. so its saying, the critics of the project said that the close offer a vision that ___|\___|\___| with a country founded by immigrants.

Ok, I forgot that (unusual) verb: "condecir" (with "con-" and "decir"). The verb means, more or less "to harmonize", "to be in accordance with".

I thought it was an English word when I saw it!

If you tell us where you saw the word, or you give us the full sentence and context, we'll probably be able to guess better. Otherwise, the answer is "we don't think such a word exists".

P. S. As LadyDi said, "conduce" is a probable alternative, but please give us context!

I think I need more context. Are you saying, "coincide" or "conduce"? The former means "to agree with," the latter means "to drive or to conduct."
