vërtetohem

vërtetohem is a verb in the Albanian language. It is the first-person singular present passive form of the verb vërtetoj, which means "to prove" or "to verify." Therefore, vërtetohem translates to "I am proven," "I am verified," or "I am confirmed." This verb indicates a state of being where the subject is subjected to a process of validation or establishment of truth.

The passive voice in Albanian, as in many other languages, is used when the subject of the sentence is the recipient of the action rather than the performer. In the case of vërtetohem, the speaker is stating that something about them, or something they are associated with, has been confirmed or shown to be true through external evidence or judgment. For instance, someone might say "vërtetohem se jam i pafajshëm," meaning "I am proven to be innocent." This implies that a process has taken place, leading to the confirmation of their innocence.

The usage of vërtetohem can be found in various contexts, from legal proceedings where guilt or innocence is established, to scientific research where hypotheses are verified, or even in everyday conversations where claims are substantiated. The grammatical structure emphasizes that the action of proving or verifying is done to the subject, not by the subject. It denotes a conclusion reached or a fact established concerning the speaker.
