Spanish term or phrase: analizar
Instructions for currency exchange businesses in Mexico repeatedly use "analizar" when it sounds to me like all it means is "verify". Am I missing some specialized usage of "analizar"?
d) Analizar, mediante pruebas selectivas, que los expedientes de los clientes de la Casa de Cambio contengan documentación que acredite la personalidad jurídica de la entidad

e) Analizar, mediante pruebas selectivas, que antes de la realización de operaciones con los mismos, se verifiquen fuentes externas con el fin de comprobar su identidad.

  -> Webster's tells me they are both the same, so that's what I'll believe.
neutral  Kate Major: In American English it's ok, but in British most definitely not, so it'll depend on the audience.//(OSD: insure [B]= American English >ensure)// Haha yes, for sure, point taken Henry :) Have a nice day :)

  -> It's a matter of style, not correctness; both are correct here. Also as a given, I can assure everyone that my English is always American, never British.

To confirm


Explanation:
