to congratulate

In Italian, 'congratularsi' is used to express praise or commendation towards someone for their achievements or special occasions. It is often employed in social contexts, such as when celebrating a graduate's success, a friend's birthday, or any milestone. The verb is reflexive, so it is commonly used as 'mi congratulo' (I congratulate myself) or 'ti congratulo' (I congratulate you), emphasizing a shared joy in the accomplishment.
