probably & possibly @_@

Post by JosephHo »

In CAE textbook, it says "probably" is used when you expect something in the future to happen; whereas, "possibly" is used to refer to something in the past. Hey, native English speakers, is this correct? @_@ Thanks a lot.

Probably is something that has a greater chance of happening than possibly...
