adverb B2 property
1

usually; in most situations

In most situations; usually, but not always.

Модел на употреба: ordinarily, [clause]
Честа грешка:
Learners sometimes confuse 'ordinarily' with the adjective 'ordinary'. 'Ordinarily' is an adverb and usually modifies a whole sentence or verb, as in 'Ordinarily, I go by car', not 'I have an ordinarily job'. Another mistake is putting it in an unnatural position; it is most natural at the beginning of the sentence or before the main verb: 'Ordinarily, we start at nine' or 'We ordinarily start at nine.'

in a normal, not special way

In a normal way, not in a special or different way.

Модел на употреба: [subject] is ordinarily [adjective]
Честа грешка:
Learners may overuse this sense where 'normally' or 'usually' sounds more natural, especially in modern English. In many cases, 'normally' or 'simply' will be more common, e.g. 'He was dressed normally' or 'He was dressed simply' instead of 'He was dressed ordinarily'.
Синоними
normally (Very similar, but 'normally' is more common in everyday speech.) | in an ordinary way (More explicit phrase with the same idea of being not special.)
Антоними
exceptionally (Stresses doing something in a very special or unusual way, not in a normal manner.) | unusually (Means in a way that is not normal or expected.)
