Potvrdi

Potvrdi is a form found in several South Slavic languages, notably Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin. It is the imperative form of the verb potvrditi, meaning to confirm or verify. The same spelling also functions as the third-person singular present tense form of potvrditi (he/she confirms) in these languages, so context determines its exact meaning.

In usage, potvrdi as an imperative is directed at a second person singular you, as in giving a command or request: Potvrdi! meaning "Confirm!" or "Please confirm." The corresponding plural or formal form is Potvrdite! used when addressing more than one person or speaking formally to a group. In other tenses, the present indicative aligns with he/she confirms as potvrd i, with other forms such as potvrdimo (we confirm) and potvrdite (you confirm). The vocabulary also yields the noun potvrda, meaning a confirmation, certification, or certificate.

Beyond everyday language, potvrdi appears frequently in computing and online forms as a button label or prompt, commonly translated as "Confirm" or "OK" to proceed with an action such as submitting data or finalizing a choice. The verb can also mean to certify or attest the truth or authenticity of something, as in official documents or statements.

Related forms include potvrditi (to confirm), potvrda (confirmation/certificate), and various conjugations corresponding to person and number. The term is widely understood in the region and appears across formal, informal, and technical contexts.
