What does it mean to gratulate someone?

To gratulate someone means to congratulate them, to express praise and approval for their achievements or good fortune. It is a formal and somewhat old-fashioned word, but it can be used in both written and spoken English.

For example, you might say "I want to gratulate you on your promotion" or "Please accept my gratulations on your wedding day."

Gratulate is not a commonly used word in modern English, so it may be unfamiliar to some people. However, it can be a useful word to have in your vocabulary if you want to express congratulations in a more formal or old-fashioned way.
