patikrintas

Patikrintas is a Lithuanian word that translates to "verified" or "checked" in English. It is commonly used in various contexts to indicate that something has been confirmed, validated, or inspected. The term is often employed in administrative, academic, and professional settings to denote that a process, document, or piece of information has undergone scrutiny and has been deemed accurate or satisfactory.

In Lithuanian, "patikrintas" is the past participle of the verb "patikrinti," which means "to check" or "to verify." This verb is derived from the noun "tikras," meaning "true" or "real," and the prefix "pa-," which often denotes completion or thoroughness. Thus, "patikrinti" implies a thorough examination to ensure truth or accuracy.

The term is frequently used in official documents, such as certificates, reports, and forms, to indicate that the information provided has been verified. For example, a "patikrintas" document might be one that has been reviewed and stamped by an authorized official, confirming its authenticity. Similarly, in educational contexts, "patikrintas" might be used to describe an assignment or exam that has been graded and returned to the student.

In everyday language, "patikrintas" can also be used more colloquially to describe something that has been double-checked or confirmed. For instance, one might say "man patikrinta informacija" to mean "I have verified the information." The term carries a sense of reliability and assurance, indicating that the subject in question has been thoroughly examined and found to be correct or satisfactory.
