Questions & Answers about Одноразовый код подтвердит перевод, но не отменит перевод.
Why is подтвердит translated as will confirm, not confirms?
Because подтвердить is a perfective verb.
In Russian, perfective verbs do not normally have a true present tense. Their “present-looking” forms actually refer to the future:
- подтвердит = will confirm
- отменит = will cancel
So both verbs here describe single completed actions in the future.
Why are подтвердит and отменит perfective?
The sentence is about the result of one specific action:
- the code will confirm the transfer
- but it will not cancel the transfer
That is why Russian uses perfective verbs: they focus on a completed outcome.
If you used imperfective verbs instead, the meaning would shift more toward process, repetition, or general ability/habit, which is not the point here.
