Réalisiez

Réalisiez is a French verb form derived from réaliser, meaning to realize, achieve, or make real. It is not a standalone lexical item but the form used with the pronoun vous. Depending on context, réal isiez can correspond to two different tenses: the imperfect indicative (vous réalisiez) and the present subjunctive (que vous réalisiez). The two tenses are spelled identically, so context and punctuation determine the meaning.

Imperfect indicative usage: vous réalisiez corresponds to a past action or a habitual action in the vous subject. Example: Quand vous réalisiez vos rêves, vous étiez déterminé. This sense translates roughly as “you were realizing/used to realize” in English.

Present subjunctive usage: que vous réalisiez appears in subordinate clauses requiring the subjunctive, often expressing necessity, possibility, or doubt. Example: Il faut que vous réalisiez ce projet avant la fin du mois. This translates as “that you realize/bring this project to fruition.”

Beyond tense, réaliser generally means to make real or to bring to fruition a plan, dream, or task, and it can also mean to understand or become aware of something in the sense of réaliser que. The verb yields related nouns such as réalisation (the act of realizing or production) and adjectives like réalisable (feasible), with common derivative terms including réalisateur (film director) and réalisatrice (female director).

In usage, réal isissage is common across formal and informal registers, and the form réal isiez is primarily encountered in written or careful speech when the vous subject is present.
