What does আসলে mean?
আসলে (asole) is a Bangla adverb that means actually, in fact, really in English.
An adverb meaning 'actually, in fact, really', usually placed at the start of a sentence to correct an impression or explain the truth. It comes from আসল (ashol) 'real, genuine' plus -ে, and is common in relaxed everyday conversation. It is not the same as সত্যি (shotyi) 'truly', which stresses sincerity rather than clearing up a misunderstanding.
