What does it mean to avouch something?

Avouched means "to assert or confirm something as true, especially by providing evidence or testimony."

In legal contexts, to avouch something means to swear or attest that it is true, often under oath. For example, a witness might be asked to avouch certain facts or events in a court of law.

In more general usage, to avouch something can simply mean to assert or claim that it is true, without necessarily providing any evidence or proof. For example, someone might say "I avouch that I saw the movie last night" to indicate that they believe they saw the movie, even if they don't have any specific evidence to support their claim.
