What's the difference between authenticate and corroborate?

Authenticate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To render authentic; to give authority to, by the proof, attestation, or formalities required by law, or sufficient to entitle to credit.
  • (v. t.) To prove authentic; to determine as real and true; as, to authenticate a portrait.

  • (12) The separated cholesterol oxides were identified by comparing with authentic standards.
  • (13) Radioimmunoassays carried out on acidic extracts of the same organs confirm the molecular results and lead us to conclude to the presence of substances strongly related to MK in the ovotestis as well as in the circumoesophageal ganglia (COG), and to ascertain that the MK-positive tentacular collar cells do not contain authentic MK.

  • (17) An aesthetic of authenticity guides his approach to movie-making.
  • (18) But if there's a piece you particularly enjoyed, or found interesting or useful, please add a comment below or tweet us: @GdnSocialCare At the start of the year, the BBC screened fly-on-the-wall documentary series Protecting Our Children , an authentic portrayal of the difficult decisions and situations social workers face every day.
  • (19) I don’t think this ghostwritten book undermines her authenticity elsewhere.

Corroborate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To make strong, or to give additional strength to; to strengthen.
  • (v. t.) To make more certain; to confirm; to establish.
  • (a.) Corroborated.
