example about comment adverbs apparently and certainly the purpose is to indicate how likely we think something is

Answer:

In making comments, especially in relation to using certainly and apparently with the function above, which is to indicate the possibility in doing something in the future, you need to put them in the proper position in the sentence as both of them are adverb.

In indicating future possibility or prediction, there are several ways of saying it. Here they are:

- will Certainly/absolutely/surely ----} for stating the 100 % possible to happen

example: - He'll certainly be the best student.

- will possibly/probably ----} for stating 75 % possible to happen

example: Brasil will probably win against Mexico later.

- might ----} for stating 50 % possible to happen

example: France might lose against Argentina tonight.

- possibly/probably won't -----} 25 % possible to happen

example: Japan won't possibly qualify to quarter final

- absolutely/ certainly/ surely won't -------} 0 % possible to happen

example: Germany surely won't win the world cup as they have lost twice in a group stage.

Here's the example of saying comments on future likelihood:

- Apparently, Portugal will be up against Argentina in quarter final if both can win their matches tonight.

- Belgium will certainly win against Japan.
