What is the action associated with the verb "Recurrir a"?

To initiate
To enable
To resort to
To communicate

The correct answer is: To resort to

The action associated with the verb "recurrir a" translates directly to "to resort to" in English. This verb phrase is used when someone turns to a particular option, source, or person in order to solve a problem or fulfill a need, often when other options are not available or have failed. For instance, one might say, "Recurrí a mis amigos para pedir ayuda," meaning "I resorted to my friends to ask for help." The other choices, while closely related to actions one might take in various contexts, do not align with the specific meaning of "recurrir a." Initiating an action, enabling something, or communicating involves different motivations and implications that do not capture the essence of seeking out options when in need. Thus, "to resort to" is the precise interpretation of "recurrir a."
