realizuj

Realizuj is the second-person singular imperative form of the Polish verb realizować, which means to realize, carry out, or implement. It is used to give a direct instruction to perform an action and is common in everyday speech as well as in professional contexts such as project planning or process management.

Etymology and form. Realizować comes from the root real- with the typical Polish imperfective verb suffix -ować. The imperative forms follow standard Polish conjugation: realizuj for the singular form addressing one person, and realizujcie for the plural. The verb is imperfective, indicating an ongoing or repeated action rather than a completed one. A negative imperative is formed as nie realizuj. For actions that should be completed, speakers often use the perfective counterpart zrealizować, whose imperative forms are zrealizuj (singular) and zrealizujcie (plural).

Usage and related forms. Realizuj is appropriate in contexts where a speaker asks someone to put plans into effect or to execute a task. It contrasts with forms like realizujmy, used to propose actions in the first person plural (“let us realize”). The noun form related to the verb is realizacja, meaning realization or implementation. The perfective pair, zrealizować, emphasizes completion of the action, and its imperative forms are used when the speaker wants the task to be finished.

Examples. Realizuj plan według harmonogramu. Realizujcie zadania codziennie. Nie realizujuj? (colloquial negation would be nie realizuj, depending on context). Zrealizuj ten projekt do końca miesiąca. Porównanie z realizacją: realizacja odnosi się do samego procesu lub wyniku, podczas gdy realizuj/realizować wskazują na działanie.
