Take it apart and it explains itself: is truth and is to seem, so means truth-seeming, that is, plausible, and the adverb means probably. Esperanto builds its whole hedging vocabulary this way, and the strength runs , then , then and at the certain end. Word order is loose: the adverb can open the sentence or sit next to the verb without changing the meaning. The abstract noun o is the word for probability, which is handy once you get anywhere near statistics.
