A synonym of "endorse" is __________.
"Endorse" is a verb that means "to publicly or officially say that you support or approve of someone or something," so we need to pick out another word that means something like "support." While "oppose" and "espouse" may look and sound somewhat alike, "oppose" means "to disagree with or disapprove of something or someone," so it is an antonym of "endorse" and not the correct answer. "Espouse," on the other hand, is a verb that can mean either "to marry" or "to express support for a cause or belief." Because "espouse" is the answer choice closest in meaning to "endorse," it is the correct answer.
