améliorez

Améliorez is the second-person plural imperative form of the French verb améliorer, meaning to improve or to make better. It is used to command or urge someone (you all) to improve something, or, in formal address, to address a single person politely. The form is identical for addressing a group or a single person in a courteous context.

Grammatical notes: Améliorer is a regular -er verb. Its imperative forms are ordi­narily tu améliore, nous améliorons, vous améliorez. In commands, the subject pronoun is usually omitted. In practice, "améliorez" appears in instructions, guidelines, feedback requests and calls to action, for example: Améliorez la sécurité du système; Améliorez la clarté des données; Améliorez votre performance.

Etymology and usage: The verb improves from Latin meliorare, meaning “to make better,” via Old French ameliourer and the eventual French form améliorer. The imperative form améliorez reflects the vous form used for either plural you or formal singular address. Common collocations include quality, performance, security, processes, and user experience, as in contexts of business, technology, education, and everyday language.

Usage notes: As a command, améliorez is often found in professional or instructional settings and can carry a prescriptive tone. It may be used alongside nouns or noun phrases to specify what should be improved (e.g., améliorez le processus, améliorez la documentation).
