définirez

Définirez is the second person plural form of the French verb définir in the futur simple (future simple). It corresponds to the English “you will define” when addressing more than one person or speaking in a formal register to a single person, depending on the pronoun used (vous).

Etymology and form: The verb définir comes from Latin definire and entered French with the prefix dé-, giving a sense of “to specify or determine.” In the futur simple, regular -ir verbs like définir add the endings -ai, -as, -a, -ons, -ez, -ont to the infinitive stem. For vous, the ending is -ez, yielding définirez. The word is spelled with an acute accent on the initial é of dé-, and the final -ez is not pronounced as a separate sound beyond the usual French final -e.

Usage: Définirez is used to describe actions that will be carried out by the addressed subject in the future, typically in formal writing, planning discussions, announcements, or instructional contexts. An example: Vous définirez les critères du contrat lors de la prochaine réunion.

Related forms: The infinitive is définir; related nouns include définition and définitionnel. Other conjugated forms include je définirai (I will define), vous définirez (you will define), ils définiront (they will define). The form participates in the regular conjugation pattern of -ir verbs in the futur simple.
