Số nhiều: awardsQuá khứ: awardedPhân từ 2: awardedV-ing: awarding

The word carries a strong sense of official validation and merit. It is not a random gift or a lucky find, but a formal recognition of excellence or a legal right. There is an inherent hierarchy involved, where an authority figure or a panel judges the recipient as worthy. In legal settings, the term shifts from a celebratory tone to a technical one. Here, it describes the finality of a judgment, transforming a claim into a concrete entitlement. It suggests the closing of a dispute and the official distribution of assets or compensation.

Countable when referring to the physical trophy or the specific honor received. Uncountable when referring to the general act of granting something, such as the award of a government contract.
