Profi-Tipp

Collocation with 'confirm'

In German, 'confirm' often pairs with 'eine Buchung' (booking), 'eine Reservierung' (reservation), or 'den Erhalt' (receipt). For example: 'Ich bestätige den Erhalt der Zahlung' (I confirm receipt of the payment).

Goldene Regel

Formal vs. Informal

Use 'bestätigen' for both formal and informal contexts. For casual confirmation (e.g., nodding), 'zustimmen' (to agree) or 'einverstanden sein' (to be in agreement) may be used.

Wortursprung

From Latin *confirmare* (to strengthen, establish), from *con-* (with) + *firmare* (to make firm), from *firmus* (firm, strong).

Verwendungshinweise

In German, 'bestätigen' is the most common translation. For official documents or legal contexts, 'beglaubigen' (to certify) or 'beurkunden' (to notarize) may be used. 'Confirm' is often used in digital contexts (e.g., email confirmations).
