Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 'confirmado' and 'confirmación'?
'Confirmado' is the status (an adjective: 'The date is confirmed'). 'Confirmación' is the noun (the thing itself: 'I need the confirmation'). They are part of the same word family but serve different roles in a sentence.
Why does 'confirmado' sometimes change to 'confirmada' or 'confirmados'?
It changes when it is acting as an adjective (describing a noun), like in 'La reserva está confirmada.' However, when it is used as part of a verb tense with 'haber' (like 'Hemos confirmado'), it never changes.
