How to say "Perhaps" in Japanese

When translating "perhaps" into Japanese, you must choose carefully between 恐らく and 蓋し. In Japanese, 恐らく (おそらく (osoraku)) is typically associated with "perhaps, probably, maybe" (Syllabus Level: N2) and represents Indicates a high probability or likelihood. It's similar to 「たぶん. On the other hand, 蓋し (けだし (kedashi)) maps to "perhaps, probably; indeed, surely (often archaic or literary)" (Syllabus Level: N1) and represents A somewhat archaic or formal adverb used to express conjecture or strong assertion. Often found in written or literary contexts.. A literal translation of "perhaps" can often sound unnatural to native Japanese speakers if mixed up!
