1. indicate

   Advert, mention, and refer are used of language that more or less distinctly utters a certain thought; the others of language from which it may be inferred. We allude to a matter slightly, perhaps by a word or phrase, as it were in byplay; we advert to it when we turn from our path to treat it; we refer to it by any clear utterance that distinctly turns the mind or attention to it; as, marginal figures refer to a parallel passage; we mention a thing by explicit word, as by naming it. The speaker adverted to the recent disturbances and the remissness of certain public officers; tho he mentioned no name, it was easy to see to whom he alluded. One may hint at a thing in a friendly way, but what is insinuated is always unfavorable, generally both hostile and cowardly. One may indicate his wishes, intimate his plans, imply his opinion, signify his will, suggest a course of action. Compare SUGGESTION.

   Synonyms:
   advert, allude, hint, imply, insinuate, intimate, mention, point, refer, signify, suggest

   Preposition:

1. Jonathan Penn:

   Narang said. Other tips to keep in mind are keeping software and security patches up to date, using strong passwords, creating a different password for every website, and using two-factor authentication when possible, according to Narang. And, of course, never give out any personal information via email, social media platforms, text messages or instant messages, Narang said. Users should also enable your email provider’s spam/phishing filters and clicking on unknown links is a bad idea. Don’t even click on links, even from family or friends, if the email lacks any context or truly personal message that [would] indicate it’s real.
