especially; in particular
Used to show that one example or fact is more important or special than the others you are talking about.
Tipar de utilizare:
notably, [clause]
Greșeală frecventă:
Learners often confuse "notably" with "noticeably". "Notably" is usually used to pick out an important example from a group (similar to "especially" or "in particular"), often with a comma before it: "Several students, notably Maria, passed." "Noticeably" usually means "in a way that can be easily seen" and is not typically used to introduce an example. Learners may also place "notably" too close to the word it modifies instead of at the start of the clause.
Sinonime
especially (Very close in meaning and more common in everyday speech; slightly less formal than "notably".)
|
particularly (Almost interchangeable, but often a bit less formal and slightly more common in spoken English.)
|
in particular (A set phrase that functions similarly, usually starts or ends the clause instead of appearing mid‑clause.)
Antonime
generally (Focuses on the whole or on typical cases, rather than picking out one important example.)
|
ordinarily (Suggests something is normal or not special, the opposite of highlighting something as important.)

[verb] notably
Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes use "notably" when "a little" or "slightly" would be more natural for small changes. "Notably" suggests a clear, noticeable difference. They may also confuse this meaning with the "especially" meaning; here, "notably" describes the degree of a change or quality, not a specific example.
Sinonime
remarkably (Very close in meaning; often slightly stronger or more expressive than "notably".)
|
significantly (Focuses more on statistical or practical importance; common in academic and technical writing.)
|
noticeably (Emphasizes that something can clearly be seen or perceived, slightly less formal than "notably".)
Antonime
slightly (Indicates only a small or minor degree of change, the opposite of a clearly notable degree.)
|
barely (Shows that something is almost not noticeable at all, contrasting with a clearly noticeable degree.)
