What does it mean to averred?

Averred means asserted or claimed. It is a formal word that was more commonly used in the past, but it can still be found in legal and historical texts.

Example: The plaintiff averred that the defendant had breached the contract by failing to deliver the goods on time.

In this example, the plaintiff is claiming that the defendant failed to fulfill their obligations under the contract, and they are using the word "averred" to emphasize that this is what they are asserting or claiming.
