I would like to know how to use "Perhaps" and "Probably"like a Native English Speaker

Hey!

What's up?

What's happening?

Welcome to Go Natural English.

I have a great question from an audience member, Ali.

Ali asked, "What's the difference between "probably" and "perhaps?"

So, the quick answer is that "probably" is like 80% - 80% sure or confident.

"Perhaps" is like 40% sure or confident.

But we can also use these words as softeners.

So, if you're really sure and 100% confident about something but you just want to seem

nice and you don't want to seem too direct or bossy, you might use "probably" or "perhaps"

as a way to soften your message.

So, I hope this was a helpful quick tip and if you want to learn more about how to become

a fluent English speaker, come to gonaturalenglish.com and I'll give you a free eBook just for visiting.

I'd love to show you the premium Go Natural English course too, to show you how you can

learn faster and better.

Thanks so much for watching and I hope to see you soon.

Bye for now.
