make practical and usable
to make a plan or idea work in real situations by creating specific steps or systems
Tipar de utilizare:

Sinonime
implement (more common and less corporate-sounding; emphasizes carrying out a plan)
|
put into practice (plain-language equivalent; emphasizes moving from theory to action)
|
execute (emphasizes carrying out planned actions, often in business or project work)
Antonime
shelve (means to stop considering or delay a plan instead of putting it into action)
