The dictionary definition would include concepts such as "certain", "guaranteed". Americans (but not Britons) tend to answer "sure" to almost any question, as a simple linguistic habit, without the word having much meaning. A bit like the use of the word "like" as a meaningless filler by many people today.

Usually spoken in hope as the underlying emotion. Like asking a date to go sailing? "Sure actually." Translation, women do NOT enjoy sailing.
