Introduction to the verb concrétiser
The English translation of the French verb concrétiser is “to make something concrete/real” or “to materialize.” It is pronounced as “kon-krey-tee-zay.”
The verb concrétiser comes from the French word “concret,” meaning “concrete” or “real.” It is formed by adding the suffix “-iser” to the adjective “concret,” which ultimately comes from the Latin word “concretus” meaning “grown together” or “hardened.”
In everyday French, concrétiser is often used in the Passé Antérieur tense, which is used to express actions that were completed before another past action. This tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb “avoir” or “être” in the passé simple tense, followed by the past participle of the main verb.
