Hello, I have just found an interesting entry in Swan's Practical English Usage. It is about the the phrase 'no doubt'. In the book you find literally: No doubt means 'probably' or 'I suppose', not 'certainly'. Example: No doubt it'll rain soon. It seemed strange so I decided to search a bit and literally on every website, people said it is used when you are absolutely sure, which is in contradiction with Swan. What is the truth?
