⚜ Presently 🆚 At present ⚜


⚜Presently is used to mean 'soon' in both British and American English:
▪️'The car will arrive presently to take Her Majesty back to the palace.'


⚜In American English presently is also used to mean 'now, at present,
currently':
▪️'The President is presently undergoing minor surgery.'


⚜The American usage is gradually becoming accepted outside the USA, but careful users of British English consider it to be non-standard.
