materialising
Taking physical form
Materialising is the British spelling of materializing.
To materialise is to take physical form or become real.
Ghosts materialise in horror stories; plans materialise when they come to fruition.
Something that fails to materialise never shows up: The promised funding never materialised.
The word implies emergence from nothing or from abstraction into concrete reality.
