Used to show that something is likely to happen or be true, but is not certain.
用法与细微差别
Often used in everyday conversation to express likelihood; less formal than 'probably' alternatives like 'likely' or 'presumably'. Typically precedes the main verb or auxiliary verb (e.g., 'He will probably come'). Learners sometimes confuse with 'possibly' which means it could happen but less certain.
