| Notes d'usage | Use 'clearly' to emphasize that something is understandable or obvious. It is appropriate in both spoken and written contexts, but may seem overly formal in casual conversations. | Use 'obviously' when something is clear or evident. It's appropriate in most contexts but can seem sarcastic if overused. |
