Which of the following verbs is used for "to promote"?

  1. Proteger

  2. Pertenecer

  3. Promover

  4. Perjudicar

The correct answer is: Promover

The verb "promover" is the correct choice for "to promote" because it directly translates to that meaning in Spanish. It is commonly used in contexts such as promoting an event, product, or idea. This verb can also refer to encouraging or fostering certain behaviors or actions, which aligns with the general meaning of "promotion" in English. The other options do not convey this meaning. "Proteger" means "to protect," which emphasizes safeguarding rather than encouraging or promoting. "Pertenecer" translates to "to belong," indicating ownership or membership rather than promotion. Lastly, "perjudicar" means "to harm" or "to damage," which has a negative connotation and is the opposite of promoting something positively. Thus, "promover" is the only verb that accurately represents the action of promoting.
