It turned up in a discursive lesson I taught in a personal development class yesterday (on, of all things, what’s “wrong” with Eric Cartman of “South Park”), so here is a context clues worksheet on the verb assert. It is used only transitively, apparently, which makes sense if one thinks about where and how to use it in speech and prose.
