    One Thing's For Sure, Two Things For Certain

    One Thing's For Sure, Two Things For Certain

    Comment
    What is the meaning of that phrase?

    The words "sure" and "certain" are translated almost equally in the Leo-dictionary.

    So where are the differences in this case?

    Thanks for helping.

    Eins ist sicher.... aber zwei ist todsicher.

    Ich denke hier gehts darum jemanden, der die Redewendung "one thing's for sure" verwendet, darauf hinzuweisen, dass "doppelt haelt besser" (also lieber noch mal absichern) gilt.
