How to say "realization" in Japanese

• 換金かんきんCommon
  noun, suru verb, transitive verbCovers only the financial sense: realizing goods into money, conversion into money, liquidation. For any other sense of 'realization' this is not the word you want — it is strictly about turning things into money.
• 気づききづきCommon
  nounThe realization that dawns on you: noticing or becoming aware of something. Use it for coming to see or understand a fact, not for achieving a goal or giving form to an idea.
  自分じぶんがよく言いわれていないという事実じじつにお気付きづきですか。↗

  Are you aware of the fact that you are not spoken well of?
• 成就じょうじゅCommon
  noun, noun (suffix), suru verb, transitive verb, intransitive verbRealization in the sense of fulfillment: a wish, ambition, or goal actually being achieved or coming true. This is about aims reaching completion, not about noticing a fact or converting goods into money.
  滑り出すべりだしが好調こうちょうなら事ことは半なかば成就じょうじゅしたのに等ひとしい。↗

  Well begun is half done.
• 具現ぐげんCommon
  noun, suru verb, transitive verbRealization as embodiment: giving concrete form to an abstract idea, ideal, or vision. When a concept is made real, incarnated in actual form, this is the word — not one for wishes simply coming true.
• 体得たいとくCommon
  noun, suru verb, transitive verbRealization through direct experience: grasping something by experiencing it firsthand until it becomes your own — hence also 'mastery'. For purely mental realizations or achieved goals, other words fit better.

Choose by sense: 換金 for turning goods into money, 「気づき」 for becoming aware of something, 成就 for a goal being fulfilled, 具現 for giving an idea concrete form, and 体得 for understanding gained through experience.
