Definition: To substantiate or prove the truth of something
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look!
That’s a very good definition from the dictionary – “to substantiate or prove the truth of something.” But what
does
that really
mean
? Let’s break it down.
“Verify” means to check something carefully, you see,
To make sure it's actually true and perfectly free
From any doubt or error, a solid, certain claim –
It’s about confirming facts, playing a truthful game!
Think of it like this: You read a story in a book,
You want to know if it’s really what you took.
You might look up details on the internet wide,
To
verify
that information, with nothing left to hide.
It's not just believing something is right,
It’s needing proof, shining a bright light!
So, “to substantiate” means to show it’s real and true,
And "prove the truth" – well, that’s what we try to do!
Does that make sense? Any questions before we move on?
