vouchsafes
Graciously permits having
Vouchsafes means to grant or give something, often with an air of condescension or as if conferring a favor: She rarely vouchsafes a smile to strangers.
The word implies the giver has power or status the recipient lacks.
It can also mean to deign to reveal: He vouchsafed no explanation for his absence.
The term sounds formal and slightly archaic.
