Confirms having received
Acknowledges is the third-person singular form of acknowledge, which means to recognize or accept that something exists, is true, or has happened.
When someone acknowledges a fact or situation, they admit it openly: She acknowledges that the project is behind schedule.
It also means to show recognition of someone's presence or contribution, often with a gesture or brief response: He barely acknowledged me when I walked in.
In formal contexts, to acknowledge something like a letter or payment is to confirm its receipt.
