besiegeln

to seal (a deal or fate)

Past (Präteritum)
besiegelte
Past participle
besiegelt (haben)

A regular weak verb. It is often used figuratively to mean finalizing an agreement or confirming a decision irrevocably, as in the context of the gardeners' agreement being 'besiegelt'. It is inseparable because the prefix 'be-' is unstressed and inseparable in all German verbs starting with it.
