seemingly
Usage Note
Aparentemente signals that something appears true from outward evidence but may not be. It is slightly more formal than al parecer or por lo visto, which are more common in speech. Be aware that in Spanish legal or journalistic usage it can be a cautious hedge (aparentemente fue un accidente — apparently it was an accident), indicating the speaker is not asserting the fact.
Examples
"Aparentemente, todo estaba en orden."
Natural Translation
Apparently, everything was in order.
