Translation
believable, credible; likely, probable
Examples
rakonto .
His story is not at all believable.
e, .
It is likely that she has already left.
on.
We are looking for a credible explanation.
.
The fact seems barely believable.
promeson.
He gave a credible promise.
plus --: able to be believed. It is the same machine that turns into and into a, and once you have it you never need to learn a passive adjective again.
The drift is in the adverb. e starts at believably and lands on probably, which is where already lives, so the two overlap in ordinary speech. Nekredebla is the everyday incredible, used just as loosely as in English. And a is a different animal entirely: credulous, ready to believe anything.
