👉 The term "augments" is often used in the context of a medical procedure or treatment that involves adding or augmenting a patient's existing condition with another, usually more severe or life-threatening illness. It can also refer to an increase in the size or volume of something, such as a tumor growing larger due to the presence of new cells. In other contexts, "augment" may be used as a verb meaning to add or augment, for example, "to augment one's knowledge."
