ólíklega

ólíklega is an Icelandic word. It is an adverb meaning "unlikely" or "improbably". The word is formed from the adjective "ólíklegur", which means "unlikely" or "improbable". The "-a" suffix transforms the adjective into an adverb. Therefore, "ólíklega" functions grammatically to describe the manner in which something is done or the probability of an event. For instance, one might say that the weather is "ólíklega" going to improve, suggesting that an improvement is not expected. Similarly, a situation could be described as "ólíklega" to succeed, indicating a low probability of success. The word is commonly used in everyday Icelandic conversation and writing to express doubt or a lack of expectation. It signifies a degree of improbability, ranging from a slight doubt to a strong conviction that something will not happen. The antonym of "ólíklega" would be "líklega", meaning "likely" or "probably".
