rabattieren
discount
Den Preis einer Ware oder Dienstleistung senken, damit jemand weniger dafür zahlen muss.
The German verb "rabattieren" means "to give a discount" or "to apply a rebate". It is derived from the noun "Rabatt", which means "discount" or "rebate", combined with the verb-forming suffix "-ieren".
Similar words:
- "reduzieren" (to reduce)
- "ermäßigen" (to reduce/discount)
- "nachlassen" (to relent, to reduce price)
Differences:
- "Rabattieren" specifically refers to setting or granting a discount on a price.
- "Reduzieren" can be broader, meaning to reduce in quantity or price, not necessarily through a discount.
- "Ermäßigen" is often used for official or standardized reductions, such as for students.
- "Nachlassen" implies a decrease but may not explicitly refer to commercial discounts.
