How to say "undoubtedly" in Japanese

- 大丈夫だいじょうぶadverbPrimarily means 'all right; fine; no problem', so as 'undoubtedly' it fits reassuring assertions that something will certainly be fine; for confident conjecture in general it is seldom the word you want.
Use 「きっと」 for 'undoubtedly' as confident conjecture — something judged almost certain rather than known for a fact — and reserve 大丈夫 for the reassuring sense that something will certainly be all right.
