The word fortify means to strengthen or protect.

Break and suffer are complete antonyms of these definitions, so those are incorrect. 

Move isn't correct either since when you think of the actual word "fort," you usually think of a secure building to keep people safe, so that's false.

But "strong" is correct. I believe the Latin root of "fort" means "Strong" so this would be the right answer! :)
