?enfranchise
Mohammed told his wife that he had no enmity for the country that had just enfranchised him with citizenship. He was enthusiastic about an enhanced level of freedom, new opportunities to be enterprising, and the enlightenment of his new fellow countrymen. He was sure that his life would be enriched in many ways. He even seemed to be enjoying himself. When an ensemble of old friends from his homeland arrived, however, he was not so enthusiastic. The changes that ensued concerned his wife greatly. He began to enforce strict dietary rules on the family, he spent an enormous time out of the house and he endorsed an enterprise that did not seem so legitimate.
