Which proword is used to confirm that the recipient has understood the information sent?

• A. Acknowledge
• B. Roger
• C. Over
• D. Copy

Answer: (A)

In radio communications, confirming that the information was understood is crucial to ensure everyone is on the same page. The proword used to do this explicitly is Acknowledge. It signals that you have received the message, understood its content, and will act on it if required. This clear confirmation helps the sender know there’s no ambiguity about comprehension. By comparison, Roger mainly notes that the transmission was received and understood, but may not carry the same explicit request for confirmation of understanding, while Copy is a more informal acknowledgment of hearing the message. Over is used to indicate you’ve finished your transmission and are awaiting a reply, not to confirm understanding. So Acknowledge is the best fit for confirming understanding of what was sent.
