To renounce something means to formally declare one's abandonment of a claim, right, or possession. It is commonly used in legal contexts where an individual may renounce a title, inheritance, or citizenship, thereby giving up all associated rights and responsibilities. The act of renunciation is often documented to ensure legal acknowledgment of the individual's decision.
