plantear
/planteˈaɾ/ · B2 · verb
to raise, to pose, to suggest, to propose, to bring up, to formulate
🧩 plantear = plant + -ear: to plant an idea or question for others to consider
Think of the root 'plant' (as in planting a seed): when you plantear a problem, question, or idea, you plant it in the conversation so others can take it up. The verb ending -ear just makes it an action.
