To try. Give something your "best shot".

It can be a verb or a noun.

As a verb, it means to begin an action...
usually something ambitious or notable.

As a noun, it refers to such an action.

Silly example using both a verb and a noun:
Endeavoring to rebuild New Orleans is quite an endeavor.

I use it as an attempt or a good try. Sometimes like an adventure.
My summer endeavor.

The word, I know, is used for naming ships, and even space vehicles.
