realizas

Realizas is the second-person singular present indicative form of the Spanish verb realizar. It corresponds to the English meaning you realize or you carry out. In everyday use, it denotes performing an action, completing a task, or bringing something into reality. It is used with the informal pronoun tú. The corresponding formal form is Usted realiza, and the plural forms include vosotros realizáis (Spain) or ustedes realizan in Latin America.

Realizar, the infinitive, carries several related senses. The most common is to carry out, perform, or accomplish a task or plan (realizar un proyecto, realizar un pago). It can also mean to make real or to materialize something (realizar un sueño, realzar una idea). In many contexts, especially in Latin American Spanish, a similar sense of achieving or fulfilling is frequent. The verb is not typically used to express the moment of understanding; for that sense, Spanish speakers usually say darse cuenta or comprender.

Usage notes and related forms: Realizas is often followed by direct objects, describing the execution of actions (realizas un plan, realizas una tarea). The noun form is realización, meaning realization, accomplishment, or production. Related adjectives include realizable (achievable) and realización (the act or result of realizing). The form tú realizas contrasts with the subjunctive realices and the imperative realiza.

Example sentences:

- Realizas tu trabajo con dedicación. (You carry out your work with dedication.)

- Realizar un sueño lleva tiempo y esfuerzo. (To realize a dream takes time and effort.)

Realizas derives from realizAR, with widespread use in Spanish-speaking communities.
