Back, support, and endorse all mean to support someone. Back is informal, meaning to stand behind a person, often with loyalty or money. Support is the most neutral, meaning to give help or encouragement. Endorse is formal, meaning to publicly approve of something.
这三个词在“支持”这个意义上相近,但语气和使用场合不同:back较口语化,指在背后支持某人或站在某一方;support语气中性,指提供帮助、鼓励或资源;endorse较为正式,指公开表态支持,常用于代言、认可候选人或产品。这里不比较back的“返回”“背部”等义项,也不比较endorse的“签署”义项,也不比较support的“支撑(物理重量)”义项。
