make information widely known
To tell many people about something, especially using TV, newspapers, or the internet.
Модель употребления:
to publicize [something]
Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes confuse "publicize" with "publish". "Publish" usually means to produce a book, article, or post so people can read it, while "publicize" means to draw attention to something and make many people aware of it, often using media or campaigns. Another mistake is using it without an object; it is almost always used with a direct object, as in "publicize the event".

|

promote a product, event, or person
To tell many people about a product, event, or person so that more people will be interested in it.
Модель употребления:
to publicize [a product/event/service/person]
Частая ошибка:
Learners may use "publicize" where "promote" or "advertise" would feel more natural in everyday business talk. "Publicize" often sounds slightly more formal and can be used beyond business, while "advertise" strongly suggests paid marketing. Also, some learners mistakenly say *"publicize about"; the correct form is "publicize something" without "about".
Синонимы
promote (Very close in meaning, but used more generally in marketing and can also mean to give someone a higher job position.)
|
advertise (Stresses paid promotion, especially in ads on TV, online, or in print.)
|
hype (Informal; suggests strong, sometimes exaggerated or overexcited promotion.)
Антонимы
ignore (Means to give something no attention instead of actively trying to attract attention to it.)
|
downplay (Means to make something seem less important, the opposite of trying to create excitement around it.)
