favorezco

Favorezco is the first-person singular present indicative form of the Spanish verb favorecer, which means to favor, benefit, or promote. It indicates that the subject (yo) gives an advantage or support to a person, idea, or situation. The base verb, favorecer, is a regular -cer verb; in the present indicative the stem is favorec- and the yo form changes orthographically to favorezco.

Conjugation in the present indicative (for reference): favorezco, favoreces, favorece, favorecemos, favorecéis, favorecen. This form is irregular only in the yo person; all other present forms follow the regular pattern for -er verbs ending in -ecer.

Etymology and usage: favorecer derives from the noun favor (favour) with the -ecer suffix, forming a verb meaning to cause to have favor or advantage. It is commonly used in formal, administrative, or political language, but also appears in general speech to express support or advantage granted to something.

Examples:

- Yo favorezco esta propuesta porque beneficia a las comunidades.

- El acuerdo favorece a las pequeñas empresas.
