The term "undertake" is often employed by authors to signal a promise or commitment to take on an action, task, or responsibility. It functions both in a literal sense—such as when a character commits to administering a dose ([1]) or embarking on a long voyage ([2])—and in a metaphorical or formal context, as seen in challenges to defend honor or execute a duty ([3], [4]). In literary dialogue and narration, it conveys a sense of determined resolve or cautious engagement, whether promising to persuade another ([5]), accepting a burdensome chore ([6]), or even boldly declaring one’s intent to defy established principles ([7]). This multifaceted use underscores the word’s capacity to bridge both everyday actions and grand, consequential endeavors ([8], [9]).
