The act or process of endorsing something; formal approval or support.
From 'endorse' + '-ation' (noun suffix indicating an action). This variant form of 'endorsement' appeared in English legal and formal contexts, though 'endorsement' became the more common form.
While 'endorsement' became the standard English word, 'endorsation' survives in some legal documents, showing how language naturally gravitates toward shorter, more convenient versions of the same concept.
