Chrismation consists of the sacrament or mystery in the initiation rites of Eastern Christianity as practiced in the Eastern Orthodox Church, Oriental Orthodox Churches, Assyrian Church of the East and Eastern Catholic churches. The sacrament is more commonly known in Western Christianity as confirmation, although some languages such as Italian, Maltese and Portuguese normally use the terms cresima, griżma (tal-isqof) and crisma ("chrismation") rather than confermazione, konferma or confirmação, respectively ("confirmation").
