Errori comuniUsing it too formally in casual conversations., Confusing it with 'obviously', which implies certainty., Not using it to introduce a statement clearly.Used in informal situations where a casual word would be better., Confused with 'presume', which has a different grammatical structure., Overused in statements where certainty is needed.
Note d'usoUsed when stating something as though it is true, often based on hearsay or indirect information. Generally appropriate in both spoken and written English, but can sound less confident than stating a fact directly.Use 'presumably' when you think something is true but don't have definite proof. It’s more formal than using 'probably' and is often used in writing or serious conversations.
