Hey there! So, "make good" is a phrase that we use to say someone is going to fix or correct something. It's kind of like saying, "I'm going to make things right" or "I'll make up for it." It's like when you accidentally break your friend's toy, and then you try to make good by apologizing and maybe helping them fix it or getting them a new one. So, in general, "make good" is like making things better or fixing a mistake.

Another way we use "make good" is to talk about being successful. For example, if you set a goal to become a doctor and you work really hard and finally become one, you could say that you've made good on your goal. It's like you've achieved what you set out to do and become successful in that way.

So, "make good" can mean to fix a mistake or to achieve a goal and be successful. It's a pretty flexible phrase that we use in different situations to talk about making things right or achieving something important. Does that make sense? Let me know if you need any more examples or clarification!
