proclaim

A proclamation is an announcement or statement made about something important.

When we proclaim something, we're making it widely known. It's like shouting from the rooftops - you want to make sure everyone knows what's happening. For example, if a new company opens up downtown, someone might proclaim its grand opening with big banners and a loud announcement on social media. Even a politician might proclaim their victory after an election. When we use this word, it usually means something significant is being shared or declared with the public.
