it can reasonably be said

Used before a statement to say that good reasons can be given for it, but some people may not agree.

Padron ng paggamit: arguably, [clause] / [be] arguably [adjective/noun phrase]
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use "arguably" when they want to show very strong personal opinion, similar to "definitely". However, "arguably" actually softens the statement and shows that it can be discussed or disagreed with. Another common mistake is putting it in the wrong place in the sentence; the most natural positions are at the beginning ("Arguably, ...") or before the main adjective or noun phrase ("arguably the best", "is arguably the best").
Mga kasingkahulugan
perhaps (More general and less focused on giving reasons; can sound less strong than "arguably".) | possibly (Emphasizes chance rather than the idea that reasons can be given.) | debatably (Very close in meaning, but slightly more formal and often used for clearly controversial points.) | it could be said (Longer phrase; often sounds more careful or polite than "arguably".)
Mga kasalungat
undoubtedly (States that something is certain and not open to argument, the opposite of a claim that invites debate.) | certainly (Expresses strong confidence and lack of doubt, rather than something open to argument.)
