Root Explanation

Verifier → It is formed from "verus" (meaning true) and "-fier" (from the Latin "facere", meaning to make or do). The word "verifier" means one who makes something true or confirms its truth.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who makes sure something is 'true' ('verus') — that's why a verifier is someone who confirms the truth.
