to demand
Usage Note
Revendiquer implies asserting a right or demanding something one believes one is entitled to — stronger than demander and carrying a political or legal overtone. Revendiquer ses droits ('to assert one's rights') and revendiquer la responsabilité d'un attentat ('to claim responsibility for an attack') are both standard uses. The noun is revendication ('claim, demand').
Examples
"Les syndicats revendiquent de meilleures conditions."
Natural Translation
The unions are demanding better conditions.
