The word "actually" often serves as a marker for asserting facts, rectifying misconceptions, or emphasizing genuine occurrence in literature. Darwin’s detailed observation, noting that whale progenitors “did actually possess mouths” [1], exemplifies its use in underscoring scientifically relevant detail, while Herzl’s brief correction in “It might be so, but actually it is not” [2] demonstrates its function to counter presumptions. In narrative dialogue, as seen in Dickens’ work [3] or Ibsen’s character questioning another’s audacity [4], the term lends immediacy and authenticity. It is also employed in philosophical or technical discussion to stress that descriptions align with reality, for instance when detailing what is “actually the fact” [5] or clarifying processes [6]. Across both narrative and expository texts, "actually" works to reinforce the truth of a statement and subtly guide the reader’s understanding of the depicted reality.
