informiere

Informiere is a form of the German verb informieren, which means to inform or provide information. The verb is used to convey facts, updates, or explanations about events, decisions, or procedures. Informiere can appear in several grammatical positions, most commonly as the first-person singular present tense (ich informiere) and as the imperative form for the second-person singular (Informiere!). The basic infinitive is informieren, and related forms such as informierst, informiert, or informieren are used for other subjects and tenses.

Etymology and form: informieren is a borrowing from Latin informare via the path through other European languages, and it is conjugated regularly in modern German. The form informiere shares the same stem informier- with the standard endings used to indicate person and mood. In indirect speech or formal writing, Konjunktiv I forms derived from informieren also appear with the same spelling in some positions (for example, er informiere).

Usage: informiere is used when someone communicates facts or details to another person or group. Examples include informing the public about a policy, informing colleagues about a change in procedure, or informing someone of a decision. It is common in journalism, administration, education, and everyday language. The noun corresponding to the action or process is Information, not Informiere.
