✦Grammar Breakdown
JadeineBuchungistbestätigt
Ja (affirmation)
A short, enthusiastic way to say “yes” or to confirm something that has just been said.
deine (possessive adjective)
Shows ownership; it must agree in gender, number and case with the noun it modifies – here ‘Buchung’ is feminine singular nominative, so ‘deine’ is used.
Buchung (noun, feminine)
Means “booking” or “reservation”. In the nominative case it takes the article ‘die’, but the article is omitted when a possessive adjective is present.
ist (sein, 3rd person singular)
The present tense of the verb “to be”, used here as a linking verb for the passive construction.
bestätigt (past participle)
A past participle used as an adjective in a passive voice construction – literally “confirmed”.

✕Common Mistakes
Ja, dein Buchung ist bestätigt.
‘Buchung’ is feminine, so the possessive must be ‘deine’, not ‘dein’.
Ja, deine Buchung ist bestätigtet.
The past participle does not take an extra ‘-et’ ending; the correct form is ‘bestätigt’.
Ja, deine Buchung wurde bestätigt.
In very formal writing you might use the passive perfect ‘wurde bestätigt’, but in spoken German the simple present ‘ist bestätigt’ is preferred.
↔Alternatives

Yes, your appointment is confirmed.
Ja, die Buchung wurde erfolgreich bestätigt.

Cultural Tip
In German‑speaking countries, written confirmations are usually sent by e‑mail and include a reference number. When speaking to a stranger or a customer, you would normally use the formal ‘Sie’ (e.g., ‘Ihre Buchung ist bestätigt’). The informal ‘du’ version is common among friends, family, or when a business has explicitly switched to a more casual tone.
