Answer:
The term "decarboxylation" usually means replacement of a carboxyl group (-COOH) with a hydrogen atom: RCO2H → RH + CO. ... Such reactions are accelerated due to the formation of a zwitterionic tautomer in which the carbonyl is protonated and the carboxyl group is deprotonated
Esterification is when two reactants basically form an ester in the end. But you knew that.
A common one is called the Fischer esterification, which is when excess/xs alcohol reacts with a carboxylic acid in (other) acid.
Here is an example of a general carboxylic acid reacting with a general alcohol in
