What does kaufen and verkaufen mean?

In German, "kaufen" and "verkaufen" are very common verbs that are related to the act of buying and selling.

Here's a breakdown:

* Kaufen means "to buy".

* Verkaufen means "to sell".

Let's look at some examples:

* Ich kaufe ein neues Auto. (I am buying a new car.)

* Der Verkäufer verkauft frische Früchte. (The seller is selling fresh fruit.)

You can think of the two words as opposites: buying something is the opposite of selling something.
