作為副詞用時，likely 前通常會有修飾性的詞，如 very 或 quite ：
例句：
He will quite likely require some help with his classes.
在學習上他極可能需要幫助。

But the unmodified use oflikely is common enough in educated writing, and though it might be better avoided in highly formal style,it should not be regarded as incorrect:
但在受過教育的人的寫作中，likely 前不加任何修飾的用法很普遍， 雖然在非常正式的文體中最好避免這種用法，但不應該將它看作是不正確的用法：
