allegedly
Significado
supuestamente, presuntamente, según se dice, alegadamente
La palabra se utiliza para indicar que algo se dice o se cree que es cierto, pero sin tener pruebas definitivas. Se emplea frecuentemente en contextos legales o periodísticos para señalar que una afirmación no ha sido confirmada oficialmente. Por ejemplo, se puede usar cuando se reporta un rumor o una acusación que aún no ha sido verificada.
💡 While "allegedly" is frequently used in legal and journalistic contexts, it is important to ensure that it is applied in situations where claims are unverified, as misuse may suggest certainty about the assertion.

Palabra en Contexto
When
Emma
opened
the
kitchen
door
she
noticed
a
puddle
beside
the
sink
and
a
cup
on
the
counter
that
had
apparently
been
knocked
over
.
Her
neighbour
had
allegedly
been
looking
after
her
plants
while
she
was
away
,
so
Emma
wondered
whether
he
had
left
the
back
door
open
.
She
felt
reluctant
to
accuse
anyone
without
evidence
,
so
she
began
to
check
the
window
latches
and
review
the
short
clip
from
the
security
camera
on
her
phone
.
The
footage
showed
a
small
tabby
slipping
onto
the
counter
and
batting
the
mug
until
it
fell
,
which
made
the
whole
incident
seem
less
mysterious
.
Although
she
smiled
at
the
cat's
clumsiness
,
Emma
also
decided
to
secure
the
shelves
and
lids
more
carefully
to
avoid
repeated
accidents
.
Before
she
left
,
she
sent
a
brief
message
to
her
neighbour
to
clarify
what
had
happened
and
to
thank
him
for
his
help
.
