Hello and happy Thursday Daily Vitamin readers!
As you probably know, this week we are learning often-confused words. Today we are looking at ENSURE vs. INSURE.
Definition of ENSURE: To make something certain, sure.
Example 1: The cruise ship ensures that your luggage will be in your room when you arrive.
Example 2: This new job ensures that I will become a full-time professor at my university.
Definition of INSURE: To provide insurance, compensation, or security (usually formally and legally).
Example 3: My car was stolen, but I am insured, so hopefully I can get a replacement.
Example 4: This policy will insure your home in the case of fire or natural disasters.
That's all for today. We will see you tomorrow for one more lesson about often-confused words.
