donc "arguably"... très probablement

de façon discutable.
C'est ça.

In the Robert & Collins senior dictionnary, there is an example with arguably.
He is arguably the greatest footballer of all time/C'est sans doute le plus grand fooltballer de tous les temps. Hope it helps.

"Arguably" veut dire "qui peut être soutenue par des arguments (qu'ils soient valides ou non)".

On peut opposer "arguable" en anglais à "discutable" (on peu présenter des arguments contre) en français.

Kêkchose comme: "On peut/pourrait dire/déclarer que..." ou n'importe quel phrase comportant un conditionnel (la condition du conditionnel est la validité d'un argument qui soutient la déclaration).


Cf: l'entrée du Merriam Webster pour "arguably".

it can be argued
<the word is arguably useful>
<arguably the busiest airport in the world>

Ça n'a rien a voir avec si la déclaration "argumentable" est valide ou non, simplement qu'il existe des arguments pour la soutenir.

Juste pour dire qua la version d'alexandro était la plus correcte. Après vérification sur d'autres dictionnaires, c'est le contraire, c'est discutable......


it's arguably the city's best restaurant, on peut soutenir que c'est le meilleur restaurant de la ville.

let me be pedantic, here is what I found (I wasn't happy with this word at all after all 'disagrees' I got!)

Journalists have begun using the word arguably in describing an artist, a writer, an actor, and so forth, who has achieved outstanding success. I have seen this word used in other contexts as well. My dictionary, which confirms my understanding from early school days, defines argue as "to give reasons for or against something."
The current use of the word arguably is arguable. For instance, "He is arguably one of the most talented musicians to reach the stage in years." This indicates to me that the talent of this musician could be disputed, although the article does not argue the point or compare the musician with other musicians.

If you could resolve this use of the word without too much argument, I would be grateful.

You are not the only person to have written me about arguably. It isn't much loved. And it is newer than many other words, having been part of our language for merely a century or so. It has a niche to occupy, however, if we'll let it. Although arguably concedes that others might argue against a point, it tends to emphasize that an argument can be made in something's favor. Disputably (which is not a common word) gives the impression of taking the contrary point of view; debatably shows no preference for either side; and possibly, probably, and so on fail to bring to mind argument at all. Arguably is a valuable word, be- cause arguably its meaning is unique.

I was convinced of the first meaning, that's why I used discutablement.
To me, at this point, 'on peut soutenir que' is definetely the best answer.
