Notably

/ˈnoʊtəbli/ adverb

Definition

In a way that is important, surprising, or worth attention. Often used to point out a key example or detail.

Etymology

From “notable” (worthy of notice) + the adverb ending “-ly.” “Notable” itself comes from Latin “notabilis,” from “nota,” meaning “mark” or “sign.”

Kelly Says

“Notably” is like a little spotlight in a sentence, telling the reader, “Pay attention to this part.” It’s a great signal word in essays to highlight your strongest evidence or most surprising fact.
