put someone or something in danger
To make someone or something likely to be hurt, damaged, or lost.
Padron ng paggamit:
to endanger [someone/something]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes say *"endanger of"* (e.g., *"Smoking endangers of your health"*). The correct pattern is *"endanger [someone/something]"* with no preposition: *"Smoking endangers your health."* Another mistake is using *"is endanger"* instead of the adjective *"is endangered"*: say *"The species is endangered"* (adjective), or *"Pollution endangers the species"* (verb).
