Which verb means to inform someone?

• A. Acquisition
• B. Apprise
• C. Specifically
• D. Impatient

Answer: (B)

Choosing a verb that means to inform someone. Apprise means to inform or notify someone about something. It’s a formal verb you’ll see in more official or written contexts, and a good direct replacement for “inform.” For example, you might say, “I will apprise you of any changes to the schedule.”

The other options don’t fit because acquisition is a noun referring to obtaining something, not a verb that means inform. Specifically is an adverb used to describe details or precision, not a verb. Impatient is an adjective describing someone who is not patient, not a verb. So apprise is the word that directly matches the meaning of informing someone.
