The word "dis-claim" typically refers to denying ownership, responsibility or association with something. Its antonyms, or words with opposite meanings, include "acknowledge," "accept" and "embrace." When these antonyms are used instead of "dis-claim," they indicate a willingness to take ownership, responsibility or association with something. For example, instead of dis-claiming credit for a successful project, one may acknowledge or accept it. Similarly, instead of dis-claiming involvement in certain activities, one may embrace them and take responsibility for them. These antonyms represent a positive attitude towards taking ownership and responsibility, as opposed to denying them.
