Question Indudablemente

Un ejercicio en mi libro.... Las instrucciones: "Sustituye las expresiones adverbales. Escribe un adverbio terminado en -mente para sustituir las frases adverbiales."

Sólo tengo duda de un problema:

5) "sin duda"
La respuesta en el libro: indudablemente

Cuales hay algunos sinónimos de indudablemente?
seguarmente? ciertamente? probablemente?

Otros?

Gracias!!

¿Otros?
Depende del contexto, pero también se puede usar "de seguro", "con certeza", "incontestablemente", "incuestionablemente", "indiscutiblemente"... sin embargo, el más cercano a "sin duda", es "indudablemente".

Sin la más mínima sombra de duda.
Con toda seguridad.
Faltaría más.
Sin el más mínimo asomo de duda.
Con certidumbre absoluta.

There is a good interview with Gabriel García Márquez, where he explains how he has tended to avoid the adverbs finished in "-mente"... (I am not sure if I already quoted this at the forums...)

Here is one link,
http://www.ciudadseva.com/textos/teoria/opin/ggm1.htm
«Por ejemplo: he dicho en mi discurso que la palabra condoliente no existe. Existen el verbo condoler y el sustantivo doliente, que es el que recibe las condolencias. Pero los que las dan no tienen nombre. Yo lo resolví para mí en El General en su laberinto con una palabra sin inventar: condolientes. Se me ha reprochado también que en tres libros he usado la palabra átimo, que es italiana derivada del latín, pero que no pasó al castellano. Además, en mis últimos seis libros no he usado un sólo adverbio de modo terminado en mente, porque me parecen feos, largos y fáciles, y casi siempre que se eluden se encuentran formas bellas y originales».

Si, pero las instrucciones eran que usaras una palabra que terminara en
-mente- y creo que indiscutiblemente o ciertamente o indudablemente (como dice Malila) son las más correctas.

You're right ... and my answer to the problem (before checking the back of the book) was "seguramente".

But when I was looking in my dictionary for adverbs that mean "sin duda", I stumbled upon several, and then the book gave something different than I had been able to find. At some point in my looking at different dictionaries and websites, etc., I realized that there are probably a lot of different ways to say "without a doubt", so I thought I'd pick some brains around here for those synonyms.

Indiscutiblemente.
Indudablemente.
Innegablemente.
Impepinablemente...

(I like the "impepinable" one... but maybe that one is too-too Spanish Castilian...)
You're welcome!
