Common Mistakes

  • Das steht auf dein Ticketbestätigung.

    The preposition 'auf' requires dative here, so the possessive must be dative feminine 'deiner'.

  • Das ist auf deiner Ticketbestätigung.

    Using 'ist' changes the meaning; 'steht' conveys that the information is written, not just exists.

  • Das steht auf deine Ticketbestätigung.

    Again, case error – 'auf' + dative, not accusative.

Alternatives

  • Das ist auf deiner Ticketbestätigung vermerkt.

    That is noted on your ticket confirmation.

  • Dort steht es in deiner Ticketbestätigung.

    It says there in your ticket confirmation.

  • Du findest das in deiner Ticketbestätigung.

    You’ll find that in your ticket confirmation.

Cultural Tip

In German, the verb 'stehen' is frequently used for written information (e.g., 'Es steht geschrieben…'). When using prepositions like 'auf', remember the case: 'auf' + dative for location, so 'deiner Ticketbestätigung' is correct. Also, 'Ticketbestätigung' is a typical compound noun you’ll see on emails, PDFs, or printed tickets for concerts, trains, and flights.
