00:00:02,319 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Hey there, it's Michael here and welcome back to English

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,919
Tips in a minute from Happy English. I'm here every

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,800
Saturday with a short, simple tip to help you speak

4
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,960
English more naturally and confidently. And by the way, if

5
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,519
you want to watch this lesson, just look for a

6
00:00:21,559 --> 00:00:26,480
Happy English podcast on YouTube. Today, let's look at a

7
00:00:26,519 --> 00:00:34,359
really natural conversational expression. Sure enough sure enough means as expected.

8
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,640
We use sure enough to talk about something that happened

9
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:42,880
exactly the way we thought it would like. I was

10
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,759
wondering if Jack would come late to the meeting, and

11
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,399
sure enough he did. And yesterday, on the way to

12
00:00:50,439 --> 00:00:54,200
the bakery, I was wondering if they would still have

13
00:00:54,359 --> 00:00:58,240
sesame bagels left, and when I got there, sure enough

14
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:03,039
they were sold out. Here's one more. The weather looked

15
00:01:03,159 --> 00:01:09,159
iffy all morning, and sure enough it started pouring during lunch. Again,

16
00:01:09,599 --> 00:01:14,159
sure enough is not negative or positive. It just means yep,

17
00:01:14,519 --> 00:01:18,200
that's exactly what I thought would happen. Try using this

18
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:22,040
phrase in one of your English conversations this week, and hey,

19
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,640
sure enough, I think you're going to sound even more

20
00:01:25,719 --> 00:01:29,239
natural when you do. Let me know in the comments

21
