valorizan

Valorizan is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb valorizar, meaning they value, value highly, or assess the worth of something. The verb valorizar comes from valor, value, with the -izar suffix used to form a transitive verb that conveys increasing or attributing value.

Regional usage varies: valorizan is common in many Latin American varieties of Spanish, where it is used to describe giving value or importance to people, ideas, objects, or actions. In Spain, and in some contexts of Latin American Spanish, the related verb valorar is more widely used for the general sense of “to value.” Both valorizar and valorar share senses of appraising, estimating worth, or elevating perceived value, but some speakers distinguish between valuing in a normative sense (valorar) and valorizing in a more active, transformative sense (valorizar).

Usage notes and contexts: valorizan can describe evaluative actions, such as valuing a project, a product, or a performance, or policies aimed at increasing the value of assets, services, or communities. In economics, finance, and marketing, valorizar is often used to denote increasing or highlighting value, whether economically or perceptually.

Translations: in English, valorizan is typically rendered as “they value,” “they value highly,” or “they assess value,” depending on context. The form follows regular conjugation patterns for -ar verbs with the -izar ending, aligning with other forms of valorizar in the present tense.
