Encourager in context of "to support a team"

Paul S.C1Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

I think you should also allow "j'encourage" for "I support" ? (For sentence: je soutiens le club de ma ville).

Chris W.C1 Kwiziq Q&A super contributor Correct answer

encourager -- to promote, to encourage, to stimulate, etc.
soutenir -- to support

I haven't done the exercise, but soutenir means something different from encourager.
