visualise
See in mind
Visualise is the British spelling of visualize.
To visualise is to form a mental image of something: I tried to visualise what the house would look like after renovations.
The word extends to making something visible that normally isn't: charts visualise data, medical imaging visualises internal organs.
Athletes and performers visualise success as a mental rehearsal technique.
