I'll check my schedule and call you back.

I'd like to confirm the date and time of our next appointment.

Let me make sure that I understand you correctly.

Can you be more specific?

Professor, could you check my essay?

You should bring your essay to your professor after confirming that it's in the proper format.

You think i'm telling a lie? What makes you so sure?

You need specific examples in the second paragraph to make it more convincing.

If you don't know the meaning of "freeze", please check your dictionary.

Let me confirm that I've understood what you taught us about essays last week.

Everyone, make sure you meet the deadline of the essay.

You understand our overall aim, so let me explain our specific goals.

Oh, no. I forgot to use a spell check before I submitted the essay.

The police need further confirmation of the suspect's identity.

Why were you late?
Because I went back home to make sure I locked the door.

I tend to get down to specifics right away, but I should provide a bigger picture first.
