Ein Dokument oder Beleg, der genau zeigt, wie sich ein Gesamtbetrag oder Ergebnis aus einzelnen Teilen zusammensetzt.

The German word "Einzelnachweis" is a compound noun made up of two parts:

  • Einzel: meaning "individual" or "single"
  • Nachweis: meaning "proof" or "evidence"

Meaning:
"Einzelnachweis" refers to an individual proof or a specific citation/document that verifies a particular fact or item.

Similar words:

  • Beleg (receipt, proof)
  • Nachweis (proof, verification)
  • Quellennachweis (source reference)

Difference:
While "Nachweis" is a general term for any proof or verification, "Einzelnachweis" emphasizes that it pertains to a single, particular piece of evidence or citation rather than collective or general proof. "Beleg" often refers more to a physical document or receipt, whereas "Einzelnachweis" is used frequently in academic or legal contexts for specific references.
