assent
의미: Official agreement or approval, especially given by someone in authority; also, to express agreement or approval formally.
Assent functions as both a noun and a verb. As a noun, it appears in formal and constitutional contexts: Royal Assent is the monarch's formal approval of an Act of Parliament. As a verb, it means to agree, typically after consideration rather than enthusiasm. It implies considered approval rather than passionate endorsement. Common collocations include 'give assent,' 'Royal Assent,' 'nod of assent,' and 'assent to a proposal.' It is more formal than 'agree' and less enthusiastic than 'endorse.'
