Adjective

eventuellt

1. indefinite neuter singular of eventuell

Adverb

eventuellt

1. possibly, potentially, perhaps

   Han kommer eventuellt på festen

   He might come to the party

2. hypothetically (as a possibility, in the most neutral sense)

   Om du eventuellt skulle ha rätt så har jag inga problem med det

   If you, hypothetically, were to be right, I have no problem with that / If you were to turn out to be right, I have no problem with that

Usage notes

The second translation of the last example is a better match for the tone, as the "hypothetically" isn't as dismissive-sounding as in English.
