Morphology
ambassadorship = ambassador (semi-transparent) = ambassador + ship
Formed from 'ambassador' + '-ship', but the marketing/brand representation sense is a metaphorical extension from diplomatic representation and may not be fully predictable to all learners.
Etymology
Ambassadorship comes from ambassador plus -ship, like in friendship. An ambassador is someone 'sent' to speak for a group, and -ship means the 'state or job' of being that person. So an ambassadorship can mean the role of representing and promoting a brand, company, or cause.
