03:31The er diphthong in the English language is very tricky, but also very important.
03:39A word we use all the time in many English phrases is sure.
03:53Now, sure is used in a number of very common phrases.
04:00One of those phrases is, are you sure?
04:04Just as an example, I might ask you, are you sure that you want to go to the Truman Brewery
04:12tomorrow?
04:13Are you sure?
04:16Are you sure?
04:19Are you sure?
04:22Another very common phrase is, make sure that, for example, you might say, make sure that you don't forget my
04:34camera tomorrow or make sure that you don't forget what time we're meeting.
04:40Can you repeat after me?
04:43Make sure that, make sure that, make sure that, make sure that, and lastly, one phrase that we use pretty
04:57much every day is, that's for sure, that's for sure, that's for sure, that's for sure.
05:10Perfect.

05:18Okay, well, that's all we've got time for today.
