Third person singular present of comport: behaves, conducts oneself, or agrees with something.
From Latin comportare. The modern usage typically appears in formal English, particularly in legal or philosophical contexts where 'comports with' means 'is consistent with.'
You'll see 'comports with' all the time in court documents and academic papers—it's a verbal muscle-flexer that lets writers sound more authoritative while actually just saying 'agrees with' or 'matches.'
