formalisés

Formalisés is a French term formed from the verb formaliser, used as the masculine plural past participle or as an adjective. It designates objects, rules, or statements that have been made formal through explicit rules, criteria, or symbolic representations. In practice, formalisés are things that have been codified, standardized, or expressed within a formal framework.

In usage, formalisés appears across disciplines to indicate a degree of precision and codification. In linguistics and theory of systems, rules and models are often described as formalisés when they are expressed in formal languages or symbolic structures. In mathematics and logic, theories, proofs, and axiomatic systems are described as formalisés when they rely on formal syntax, inference rules, and axioms. In computer science, formalisés refers to specifications, verification procedures, and methods that use formal methods and mathematical reasoning to ensure correctness. In law and administration, procedures, contracts, and compliance processes are described as formalisés when they follow explicit, codified standards.

The term has gender and number variations: formalisé (masc. sing.), formalisée (fem. sing.), formalisés (masc. plur.), formalisées (fem. plur.). The related noun form is formalisation (la formalisation) or the plural formalisation s (les formalisation s) depending on context, though sometimes the English loan “formalisation” is used in international texts.
