> I am sure of his success.
Although this sentence has 70 translations, I think it's problematic. A native speaker would be more likely to say either:
I am sure he will be successful.
I am sure he will find success.
or:
I am sure he was successful.
I am sure he found success.
But this version doesn't really make it clear which one is meant, and it's not a good form of ambiguity, either.
Note that you could use the "I am sure of his X" form for other sentences, such as:
I am sure of his potential.
With so many translations, I wouldn't advise changing this sentence, but I did want to comment on it.
