Doesn't this word mean supposedly, allegedly? It's not in the Spanishdict.com dictionary.

Not only ours but the rae's. Think that there may be a reason? You won't find supposedly in English in our dictionary either, just supposed (adjective).

Aviso

La palabra supuestamente no está en el Diccionario.

allegedly=presuntamente

Collins-supuestamente

Some native comments on the use of the word.

se supone

Interesting enough when you double click on the word you do get a definition. Don't forget, you can report these items yourselves via the feedback link at the bottom of every page.

It's because supuesta is just a conjugation of suponer. The translators don't do well with conjugations of verbs. Even more so with endings like mente, ando and iendo. just always look for the def article.
