Ausweisung vs Angabe

information / boasting

'Angabe' and 'Ausweisung' can both have to do with information that is shown visibly or stated officially. An 'Angabe' is a specific piece of information, for example a price, a date, or a number. 'Ausweisung' here means that something is officially marked or declared, for example a price or an area. The words can be confused in connection with signs, invoices, or official texts. 'Angabe' emphasizes the information itself; 'Ausweisung' emphasizes the official act or the official designation. The meaning of 'Ausweisung' as an official order to leave a country is not part of this similarity here.
