As u/Unfair_Conference_73 pointed out, you can use the „Recovery Check“ application in Ledger Live to verify your 24 word recovery phrase in a safe and secure manner without exposing your private keys in any way, shape, or form. [Here](https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/360007223753-Recovery-Check?docs=true) is some great documentation (with a video as well) on how the „Recovery Check“ application works, in more detail.
Additionally, as u/Wammakko mentioned, if you have any doubts over this and you’re feeling uneasy about the 24 word recovery phrase you generated (and you want to be absolutely certain about each word) you can also [reset](https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/360017582434-Reset-to-factory-settings-?docs=true) your Ledger device and generate a brand new 24 word recovery phrase.
**Importantly, if you have any funds already associated with this device (or if you’ve sent crypto to any addresses created by this device) you’ll need the 24 word recovery phrase in order to access these – if you reset the Ledger device and don’t have your 24 word recovery phrase written down – any/all funds associated with the device/24 word recovery phrase will be lost, once reset.**
