Help with question Hi, there Could you help me? Hi, everyone 1)What's the difference between "there is sure to be", "there is" and "there sure is going to be"? I read this somewhere "We start searching tomorrow. There is sure to be an undiscovered part of the old templo"? Why "there is sure to be" 2) I know you say "better me than him" and "better you than him"... But what if i add a clause to it? "it is better that he loses than me/I". "Better you leave than he/him"? Me or I? He or him? Please...

As for your first question "There is sure to be" is used in a context where someone is certain something will happend, but it is not definite. "There is" is used when someone knows for a fact that something will happen or be. Many native ebglish speakers use "There us sure going to be" to explain how they feel about something or when making a statement about something that is going to happen in the future. while adding a clause to both phrases is not incorrect it may be considered overly formal or odd in almost every situation. I would advise to stick with "better him than me" and "better you than him".
