What is the translation of the verb "Proteger"?

  1. To belong

  2. To protect

  3. To take away

  4. To recognize

The correct answer is: To protect

The verb "proteger" translates to "to protect" in English. This aligns with the definition and common usage of the word in both Spanish and English. In Spanish, "proteger" refers to the act of safeguarding or defending someone or something from harm or danger, making "to protect" the most accurate translation. The other choices do not convey this meaning. "To belong" suggests a relationship of ownership or association, while "to take away" indicates removal, which is unrelated to the idea of protection. "To recognize" involves acknowledging someone or something, which also does not connect to the concept of safeguarding. Therefore, the correct response clearly reflects the essence of "proteger."
