How to use "Promise" in context?
In English, a promise is an assurance or declaration made by a person, typically with the intention of carrying out that assurance or doing something with regard to it. A promise may be express or implied. Promises may be to do something (e.g. to vote), to refrain from doing something (e.g. not to hit someone), or to behave in a certain way (e.g. to be a good friend). If a promise is not carried out, it may constitute a breach. Promises may be formal or informal.
