Hi,

Can You give me the alternate sentence for "I will hold to that"
This is very urgent one for me,

Can you provide some more context, please? Without that, it seems to mean 'I will not change my mind'.

Best wishes, Clive

Hi,

OK, I see. The correct expression is 'I will hold you to that', meaning 'I expect you to keep your promise, to do what you  say you will do'.

Best wishes, Clive
