* Tacitly: This means something is understood or agreed to without being openly stated.

* Indirectly: This means something is conveyed in a roundabout or subtle way.

* Vaguely: This means something is unclear or uncertain.

* Ambiguously: This means something has more than one possible meaning.

If "expressly" means "specifically":

* Generally: This means something applies to a broad range of situations.

* Broadly: This means something encompasses a wide scope.
