Probably means likely, little doubt. It will almost certainly happen.
It is likely to happen.
Maybe means almost the opposite. It might happen but it is not likely.
It is unlikely to happen but it might.
I will probably learn to speak another language if I work hard enough.
I will maybe win the lottery.

I guess there's no big deviation between these two words.
