AUDIO TRANSCRIPT FROM "ON YOUR LEFT" HANDOUT (For C12 Group)

It's transcript 10.4

"SURELY" (FOR AVANZADO C12)

Surely

We use the adverb surely to express a degree of certainty. It does not express as much certainty as definitely or certainly. When we use surely, we are hoping that our listener will agree with us:

Lisa will surely find a solution to the problem. (I want you to agree with me that Lisa will find a solution.)

Surely this is against the law. (I want you to agree with me that it is against the law.)

Compare:

It's surely quicker if you have a computer. (	I want you to agree with me)

It's certtainly quicker if you have a computer. (I am certain that it is quicker to have a computer)


We can use surely in questions, to show surprise:

“We are moving to LA” “Surely you are (leaving to LA)?

“She has decided to take the job” “Surely she has decided to take it?

EXERCISE: Complete the sentences

1.- “I am quitting my job” “Surely __________________?

2.- “I told you I put he key in my pocket” “Surely _________________?

3.- “It looks like they are coming” “Surely _________________?

4.- “That’s Peter over there” “Surely _________________?

5.- “The pólice arrested me for stealing an apple!!” “Surely _______________?
