recalcarão

Recalcarão is the third-person plural future indicative form of the Portuguese verb recalcar. As a regular -ar verb, recalcar forms its future tense by adding the suffix -ão to the infinitive: recalcar + ão → recalcarão. The form corresponds to “they will recalcar” in English, and can be used with any subject noun in the plural.

Etymology and meaning. Recalcar comes from calcar, with the prefix re-, which often indicates repetition, return, or emphasis. In standard use, calcar refers to pressing or stamping to transfer a design or impression, and recalcar carries the sense of pressing again or reaffirming in contexts that involve physical imprinting or figurative repetition.

Usage notes. In contemporary Portuguese, recalcar can be used in literal senses related to stamping or imprinting a second time, such as applying a second impression in a craft or printing context. In figurative or formal language, recalcar may be used to denote reiterating or reaffirming a point, claim, or requirement, though the exact nuance can vary by region and register. Recalcarão, as a future tense form, appears in narrative or descriptive sentences about actions to be taken by a plural subject.

Examples.

- Eles recalcarão o desenho no material antes de prosseguir.

- Os comerciantes recalcarão as cláusulas do acordo durante a reunião.
