 * I don't see it. For me as an English speaker, what "from the possible" or "from the probable" is supposed to mean isn't very clear. — Eru·tuon 00:25, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I am undecided. : It's one of the ways to form adverbials from adjectives, compare with the similar . --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 08:37, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Ah, okay. If there are lots of phrases like this, it might be better to add a sense to instead. Are they always used with an  clause following?
 * It's interesting because these two cases function like a clause-level adverb (probably not the correct term) in English, which is sometimes criticized by pedants based on the notion that an adverb should describe the manner in which an action takes place, not describe something about the whole statement. For instance, "Honestly, I think you're wrong" would be criticized because it does not mean "I think in a honest manner that ..." but something more like "I'm being honest when I say that I think ...". Not sure if these phrases are always similar to that or not. — Eru·tuon 19:10, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. The  here is being used in the sense of "of": "[it is] of [what is] probable that...", and it's rather common, so this usage is inarguably an SoP. M. I. Wright (talk) 09:28, 17 November 2019 (UTC)
