apparently

from appearances alone

• “irrigation often produces bumper crops from apparently desert land”
• “the child is seemingly healthy but the doctor is concerned”
• “had been ostensibly frank as to his purpose while really concealing it” Thomas Hardy
• “on the face of it the problem seems minor”

unmistakably (`plain'' is often used informally for `plainly'')

• “the answer is obviously wrong”
• “she was in bed and evidently in great pain”
• “he was manifestly too important to leave off the guest list”
• “it is all patently nonsense”
