Assumedly

/əˈsuːmɪdli/

संभवतः; अनुमानतः

Origin & History

Formed from the verb “assume” (Latin assumere ‘to take up, adopt’) + the adverb-forming suffix “-edly”; recorded in modern English as a variant of “presumably.”

यह “assume” क्रिया (लैटिन assumere ‘अपनाना/स्वीकार करना/ले लेना’) और क्रिया-विशेषण बनाने वाले प्रत्यय “-edly” से बना है; आधुनिक अंग्रेज़ी में “presumably” के एक रूप/विकल्प के तौर पर मिलता है।

Definition

Used when you are not completely certain but are basing a statement on an assumption or what seems likely; similar in meaning to “presumably,” sometimes with a slightly tentative tone.

इसका प्रयोग तब किया जाता है जब आप पूरी तरह निश्चित नहीं होते, लेकिन किसी अनुमान या जो संभव लगता है उसके आधार पर बात कहते हैं; अर्थ “presumably/संभवतः” के समान, कभी-कभी हल्की अनिश्चितता के भाव के साथ।
