Stability for a person is the most comfortable condition under which one can build far-reaching plans. In the language, the indicator of such regularity is “certainly”. The short word strictly indicates the positions of citizens, who actually give an oath promise to fulfill their obligations. And no personal circumstances or natural disasters will affect the decision.
What is the etymology?
Philologists denote the ascent to the Church Slavonic language. The split into two parts is obvious:
- denial;
- changes.
It's about something primordial, eternal. Human words and deeds do not affect such an object. “Definitely” is a qualitative characteristic over which even time has no power. At least from the point of view of the observer.
How and when is it used?
At the household level, the word is in demand. In the family, it helps to indicate the importance of any action for the child, in the workserves as a marker by which employees prioritize.
The phrase "definitely necessary" almost always precedes a long list of things to do. It stands for elementary:
- by all means;
- under any circumstances;
- required etc.
And if you do not fulfill the conditions, no excuses will help. Also, the adverb is used as an evaluative characteristic of someone's actions. The speaker does not know for certain, but is absolutely sure of the veracity of the words:
- In the country, they will certainly go to the bathhouse.
- They will certainly drink on fishing.
Often, the word is given the meaning of a particle and inserted in response to a request. In this case, “certainly” is an expression of consent and submission:
- Come at seven! – Absolutely!
- Don't forget to wear a hat. – Absolutely!
Universal answer. Suitable for situations where a question or wish comes from a person who does not intend to refuse.
How appropriate?
The adverb fixes obligations. You literally take an oath to fulfill everything unconditionally. Therefore, the word should be used with extreme caution. So, if you insert “by all means” into the report for shareholders, this will serve as a signal about the success of the enterprise and cause their positive reaction. However, in case of failure, it gives a reason to accuse of deception.
Bin conversations with relatives and friends, such an answer retains the format of a promise, but less formal. It turns out something like “I’ll do everything, don’t worry!”, Said, if only they were left behind. The specific interpretation depends on intonation and context. Only in case of absolute confidence in actions and deeds, take the word into your vocabulary.
