使い方のコツ
"Confirm" is stronger than "check" — you "check" to see if something is true, but you "confirm" to make it certain or official. It's also different from "verify," which often means checking facts or identity (e.g., verify your identity) rather than finalizing a plan. In business emails and chats, people often start with "Just confirming..." to restate details politely, as in "Just confirming our call is at 3 p.m." A common spelling mistake is writing it as "comfirm" (with an "m" instead of "n") — remember it's c-o-n-f-i-r-m.
