Apprise

verb/uh-PRYZE/

To formally tell or inform someone about something.

Please apprise me of any change to the training schedule.

Apprise sounds like 'a prize' of news — you hand someone the news they need to know.

Use 'apprise' (of) to formally inform; don't confuse it with 'appraise' (to judge value).
