subsidize
The German word "bezuschussen" is a verb that means "to subsidize" or "to provide a financial subsidy". It is composed of the prefix "be-" combined with "zuschussen," which comes from "Zuschuss," meaning "grant" or "subsidy." "Bezuschussen" refers to the act of providing financial support to help cover costs, usually with the intent to encourage specific activities or reduce expenses.
