asignar
/asiɡˈnaɾ/ · B2 · verb
to assign
🏷️ Looks like English assign: Latin ad + signum, to put a mark on something
It comes from Latin assignare, built from ad (to) and signum (sign, mark), so it means marking something out for someone. Spanish keeps the g in the spelling, as in signo and señal, and the stress falls on the last syllable: a-sig-NAR.
