ostvaruje

Ostvaruje is a present tense form of the South Slavic verb ostvarivati (imperfective), used in languages such as Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian. It means to realize, achieve, or fulfill something and denotes an ongoing process of bringing plans, goals, or expectations into reality. The related perfective form ostvariti expresses a completed realization or achievement. Thus ostvaruje emphasizes the ongoing nature of realization, while ostvariti highlights the result of a finished effort.

In usage, ostvaruje is commonly paired with nouns like cilj (goal), plan, vizija (vision), or projekat (project). It appears across domains such as business, politics, urban planning, and law, where states or entities describe ongoing progress toward objectives. The sense can be translated as “is realizing,” “is achieving,” or “is bringing about” in English. Typical collocations include ostvaruje cilj, ostvaruje plan, ostvaruje viziju, and ostvaruje profit.

Examples include: Kompanija ostvaruje rast prihoda. Grad ostvaruje svoju viziju razvoja. Organizacija ostvaruje svoje obaveze prema partnerima. These illustrate ongoing progress toward earnings, strategic goals, or contractual duties. In contrast to ostvariti, which signals a completed achievement, ostvaruje focuses on the continuing path of realization.

See also: ostvarivanje (the noun form meaning realization or achievement), ostvariti (the perfective counterpart). The word is commonly understood across the region and often appears in formal and semi-formal text, including press, reports, and contract language.
