L'expression anglaise «to ensure that» peut aussi avoir un autre sens : contrôler que quelque chose a été accompli (nuance passive). Lorsqu'il y a ambiguité, on peut utiliser les expressions : veiller à ce que, veiller à et devoir. Dans la construction avec le verbe devoir, la phrase «Ensure that all parts are clean before assembling» peut se rendre par «Toutes les pièces doivent être propres au moment du remontage.» 2, record 1, French, - assurer
