Mensagem: |
"For sure" is not standard English. Yes, you hear it used as slang in some contexts, but not in contexts such as "For sure you can." A better reply would be "Certainly", "Of course", etc. with or without "...you can." Congratulations on having good ears. You heard something that didn't sound right. |
