Yes, that's right.

La soirée aura bien lieu malgré le mauvais temps.

The party will definitely take place despite the bad weather.

Or we can confirm that the party will take place.

Do you have other synonyms?

many thanks Lanarcam!

In fact, 'confirm' is probably a better fit for the context.

I'm trying to make a habit of doing this exercise everyday

- I've found it particularly useful listening to his 'c'est a dire'
approach. My query arose from his exercise #1657 – Procès (Trial)
which is on that page at around (2:30secs in to the audio)
