What does ASSURE mean in Scrabble?
verb
To tell someone something confidently and firmly in order to remove their doubt or worry.
Assure is used when someone actively works to give another person confidence or peace of mind, as in I assure you everything is fine, rather than simply stating a fact. It differs from the similar words ensure and insure: ensure means to make certain that something happens, and insure relates to financial cover against loss, while assure focuses on reassuring a person. In British English, assure can also refer specifically to life assurance, a form of insurance that pays out on death rather than on damage or loss.
