You may be thinking of the Bronsted-Lowry theory of acidity/ basicity in which an acid is a proton donor and a base is a proton acceptor. An example is H+ + NH3 ===> NH4+. NH3 accepts the proton and forms what is called a conjugate acid. This is because the NH4+ can give up the proton again: NH4+(aq) + OH-(aq) ===> NH3(g) + H2O.
