用法筆記
This spelling (one word) is a nonstandard variant of the more common two-word phrase 'make sure'. It appears most often in informal digital writing and casual speech. In formal writing, the two-word form 'make sure' is preferred. The phrase is commonly followed by a that-clause (with 'that' frequently dropped), a to-infinitive, or 'of' + noun phrase.
