the process of checking accuracy or truth
The action of checking something to make sure it is true, correct, or good enough.
用法パターン：
verification of [something]
よくある間違い：
Learners often confuse "verification" with "validation" and "confirmation". In everyday English, "verification" usually focuses on the careful process of checking something, while "confirmation" is the final yes/no answer, and "validation" is especially common in technical or scientific fields when checking if something follows specific rules.

Information or papers that show something is true or correct.

provide verification of [something]
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use "a verification" to talk about an event ("We did a verification"), when in many contexts a simpler word like "check" sounds more natural. They may also use "verification" where native speakers prefer "proof" or "evidence" in general, non-official situations.
類義語
proof (More general and common; can be strong or weak; not limited to official documents.)
|
documentation (Highlights written or official papers used as verification.)
|
evidence (Broad term for information that supports a claim; not always final or complete proof.)
対義語
disproof (Information that shows a claim is not true, the opposite of verification in this sense.)
