BET-4: meaning and examples
Good morning again.
Today we conclude our short series of Daily Vitamins about expressions with the word BET.
Today's expression is: A good / safe bet
Meaning: something that is likely to happen, to succeed or to be suitable or appropriate.
Example 1:
Lisa: What should I get David for his birthday?
Janet: Something technological is a safe bet; you know... a mobile, a tablet or something like that.
Example 2:
It's a good bet that Mike will be named the new CEO of the company. He has been working here for years, he's got everyone's respect, he knows the business well and people like him.
Remember that tomorrow we present the Essential Weekly Vitamin for Spanish-speaking students of English.
Until then, have a great day!
