undoubtedly

/ənˈdaʊtɪdɫi/ adv B2

without doubt

Word Origin Doubt from Latin 'dubitare' 'to waver between two', plus 'un-' 'not' and '-ed' and '-ly'. So 'undoubtedly' means 'in a way that is not doubted'. The same root gives us 'dubious', 'indubitable', 'redoubtable'. The 'un-' prefix negates, and '-ly' makes it an adverb.
