How to say "Generally" in Japanese

When translating "generally" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between おおむね and 概して. In Japanese, おおむね (おおむね (ōmune)) is typically associated with "generally, mostly, for the most part, roughly" (Syllabus Level: N2) and represents Indicates that something is true in general, or largely, but might have minor exceptions or details that are not fully covered. It's used when a general statement or summary is sufficient.. On the other hand, 概して (がいして (gaishite)) maps to "generally, on the whole, by and large" (Syllabus Level: N1) and represents Used when making a general statement or observation that is true for the most part, though there might be exceptions. Similar to 「一般的に言って」 or 「全体的に見て」.. A literal translation of "generally" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
