For 0M8 and KVKS departures, changing to the next fix requires the use of which phraseology?

Explanation:
When a departure clearance is amended to route you to the next fix, you must confirm that updated clearance before proceeding. Saying “Verify this clearance” communicates clearly to ATC that you want the exact, current clearance to the next fix validated. This helps ensure you won’t fly the previously filed route or misinterpret the modification, which is essential on SIDs like 0M8 and KVKS where the next fix defines the next leg of the departure. Continuing as filed would ignore the change, which could lead you off the intended path. “Change approved” is something ATC might say to acknowledge a modification, not a pilot request for confirmation. “Proceed as planned” isn’t standard phraseology for confirming a modified clearance.
