意味
Confident about an outcome.
文化的背景
Greeks often avoid being 'too sure' out loud to avoid the evil eye. You might hear 'πρώτα ο Θεός' (God willing) right after this phrase. In rural areas, you can have it 'for sure' that you will be offered food. It's a cultural certainty. The phrase 'με έχεις για σίγουρο' is a common 'red flag' in dating, indicating a lack of effort or 'ghosting' tendencies. Greek sports fans are known for their passion and absolute certainty in their team, often using this phrase before big derbies.
Use it for emphasis
If you want to sound more native, use this instead of 'Είμαι σίγουρος' when you are making a prediction.
Watch the gender
Always check if you are talking about a person (masc/fem) or a thing (neuter) to match the pronoun and adjective.

The 'Jinx' factor
Be prepared for Greeks to say 'χτύπα ξύλο' (knock on wood) if you are too certain about something good!

よくある質問
4 問It's better to use 'Το θεωρώ δεδομένο' or 'Είμαι βέβαιος' in formal emails. 'Το έχω για σίγουρο' is slightly too conversational.
It's not strictly wrong and you will hear it, but 'για σίγουρο' is the grammatically complete idiomatic form.
You say 'Δεν το έχω για σίγουρο' or more formally 'Δεν το θεωρώ δεδομένο'.
Not always. It can just mean you are very confident. The context and the object (person vs. thing) determine if it's negative.
