I would stick with âlends credibilityâ, but that's me.

Subject: "lends" or "provides" credibility ?
Hello, wordsmiths,
I think the common phrase is âlends credibilityâ, but I tend to internalize that as âtemporarily providingâ credibility (because âlendingâ isnât a permanent gift), and certainly thatâs not whatâs typically meant!
So am I just off the wall with wanting to avoid the âlends credibilityâ phrase? If not, then what might you suggest as an alternative?
Just wondering,
-Monique
