It is a careful, slightly formal adverb. Though actually, people also use it in speech when they want to pass on a story without fighting about whether it is true.
It is a careful, slightly formal adverb這是一個謹慎、稍微正式的副詞。Though actually不過事實上,people also use it in speech when they want to pass on a story without fighting about whether it is true人們在口語裡也會用它,來轉述一件事,而不去爭論這件事是不是真的。
