In the best situation; preferably
Used to say what would be the best thing to happen, even if it may not really happen.
ਵਰਤੋਂ ਦਾ ਢਾਂਚਾ:
Ideally, [someone] should [verb]
ਆਮ ਗਲਤੀ:
Learners sometimes use *ideal* instead of *ideally* at the start of a sentence (e.g. *Ideal, we should leave now*). Use *Ideally,* plus a comma to introduce what would be best: *Ideally, we should leave now.* Another mistake is using *perfectly* instead of *ideally* when talking about what you want to happen in the future; *perfectly* usually describes how something is, not what you wish for.

ideally [adjective/past participle]
