In a dependable, trustworthy way
In a way that you can trust to work or be the same every time.
Tipar de utilizare:
to do [something] reliably
Greșeală frecventă:
Many learners confuse the adverb "reliably" with the adjective "reliable" and say things like "The machine is working very reliable" instead of "The machine is working very reliably". Remember: use "reliable" before a noun or after "be" (a reliable car), and use "reliably" to describe how something is done (The car starts reliably). Learners also sometimes say "I can reliably on him" instead of using the verb "rely" correctly: "I can rely on him."
Sinonime
dependably (Very close in meaning; slightly more formal and less common in everyday speech.)
|
consistently (Focuses more on doing something in the same way every time, not always on being trustworthy.)
|
steadily (Emphasizes being continuous and without sudden change, and may not always imply trustworthiness.)
Antonime
unreliably (Shows that something often fails or cannot be trusted to work or behave as expected.)
|
inconsistently (Emphasizes changing results or behavior so that you cannot rely on it.)

With consistent, accurate results
In a way that gives correct results again and again, so people can trust the test or method.
Tipar de utilizare:
[method/test/model] can reliably [verb] [something]
Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes use only "accurately" when they mean that a method is both correct and trustworthy over time, as in scientific writing. In many technical contexts, "reliably" is preferred when you want to stress that results are both accurate and repeatable, not just correct once.
Sinonime
accurately (Focuses mainly on being correct; "reliably" adds the idea of being repeatable and trustworthy over time.)
|
consistently (Stresses sameness of results but does not always imply that the results are correct or scientifically valid.)
Antonime
inaccurately (Shows that measurements or predictions are not correct, and therefore cannot be trusted.)
|
unreliably (Highlights that results cannot be depended on because they may change or fail without warning.)
