guarantee
This word carries a heavy weight of legal and financial certainty. It is not a casual promise; it is a binding commitment that implies a penalty or a remedy if the promise is broken. In commercial settings, it transforms a risk into a certainty for the buyer. When used as a verb in a non-commercial sense, it describes an inevitable causal link. Saying something is guaranteed suggests that the outcome is locked in by logic or fate, leaving no room for chance or failure.
Countable when referring to a specific legal document or a written warranty. Uncountable when referring to the general concept of providing assurance.
Ý nghĩa
To provide a formal assurance that certain conditions will be fulfilled.
"The company guarantees the product for two years."
To be certain to happen or result in a specific outcome.
"Hard work does not always guarantee success."
