In French
authentic is something or an object with is real and not a copy, 
        for exemple "une peinture de vanGogh" is it the real one ?
authentification, from the verbe "authentifier" == to make an authentification
        or Try to give or show the "preuve" (proof?), for exemple
        that Me is really me.
