Suggests or advises a particular course of action or choice as being the best or most suitable. To endorse or speak favorably about someone or something.
From Latin 'recommendare', combining 're-' (again) and 'commendare' (to entrust, praise). Originally meant to entrust someone to another's care, evolving to mean suggesting something worthy of trust or consideration.
The word 'recommend' embodies the social nature of human decision-making. In our information-rich world, recommendations have become so valuable that entire industries - from movie suggestions to product reviews - are built around algorithmic attempts to replicate trusted human recommendations.
