pluraliza

Pluraliza is a verb form used in Romance languages, most often as the third-person singular present indicative of the verb pluralizar. It denotes the action of making something plural, or indicating plurality in a word or phrase.

In Spanish, the infinitive is pluralizar. The present tense forms include pluralizo, pluralizas, pluraliza, pluralizamos, pluralizáis, pluralizan. An example is: Él pluraliza la palabra al añadir una "s". This shows how a singular form is modified to express plurality.

In Portuguese, the infinitive is pluralizar. The present tense forms include eu pluralizo, tu pluralizas, ele pluraliza, nós pluralizamos, vós pluralizais, eles pluralizam. An example is: Ela pluraliza a palavra ao acrescentar o plural "s". The form pluraliza similarly marks the third-person singular present action of pluralizing.

Etymology traces pluraliza to the Latin root pluralis, meaning “more than one,” combined with the verb-forming suffix -izar, which yields verbs that denote causing or making a state or action.

Usage notes: pluraliza functions as a standard grammatical form in both Spanish and Portuguese to indicate that a noun, pronoun, or other expression is being made plural. Its exact spelling and pronunciation align with the phonology of each language.

In English, the related term is pluralize (American) or pluralise (British). The specific form pluraliza would appear primarily in Spanish- or Portuguese-language contexts, not in English-language syntax. See also pluralization, plural, and -izar verbs.
