allege、supposedly、reportedly、allegedly vs allegedly
1. allegedly：副词 “据称；据说（指未被证实的说法）”（如 He allegedly stole the money 据称他偷了钱；The company allegedly broke the law 据说该公司违法了）；
2. 与 allege（动词 “声称；指控”，如 allege a crime 指控犯罪；allege that 声称……）混淆词性 ——allege 是动词（sb alleges sth），allegedly 是副词（修饰动词或整个句子）；
3. 与 supposedly（副词 “据说；假定”，如 supposedly true 据称是真的）区别：supposedly 侧重 “基于假设或传闻”，allegedly 侧重 “基于他人指控或未经证实的说法”（supposedly a good book 据说一本好书，allegedly a stolen book 据称是偷来的书）；
4. 与 reportedly（副词 “据报道”，如 reportedly missing 据报道失踪）区别：reportedly 侧重 “基于媒体报道”，allegedly 侧重 “基于他人指控，可能含负面意味”。
