peer agreement (net): +2impulse to actualize and objectify Explanation: I can't find any statement to this effect by Jean-Marie Schaeffer, but it seems to me that the English verbs that best correspond to "sustanciar" and "objetivar" and "actualize" and "objectify". "Materialize" is also a possibility for "sustanciar", but "actualize" seems better to me, and "actualize" or "actualization" seem to occur in texts that discuss Schaeffer. As Bea has shown, "sustanciar" means "llevar a cabo y hacer material un proyecto, una idea o un sentimiento". "Actualize" means: "Make a reality of. ‘he had actualized his dream and achieved the world record’" https://www.lexico.com/en/definition/actualize "To realize in action or make real" https://www.ahdictionary.com/word/search.html?q=actualize You could say "impulse towards actrualization and objectification", or "actualizing and objectifying impulse", but I think it flows best with simple verbs and the meaning's the same. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2019-07-10 21:28:04 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I meant to write: 'the English verbs that best correspond to "sustanciar" and "objetivar" ARE "actualize" and "objectify". |
