Ah! then best avoid those...
Franchement and préférablement can be found in different places in a sentence. Take a look at the following examples:
Franchement -
Je vous ai dit franchement ce qui c'est passé = I told you honestly what happened
Franchement, tu exaggères! = To be frank /honest, you are out of order!
Aucun de ses collègues n'étaient franchement meilleurs que lui = None of his colleagues were truly/really better than him
Préférablement = de préférence -
Nous irions préférablement/de préférence en Italie = We would prefer to go to Italy
Il faut prendre deux cachets par jour, de préférence avec les repas = Two tablets per day, to be taken, preferably with meals
Cette fête aurait préférablement/ de préférence lieu le 26 décembre = This party would take place preferably /ideally on the 26th of December
Hope this helps!
Hello Cécile, I think the system thought I was trying to code...!
The word I was after was préférablement, but I’m also curious about franchement. Thank you!
