Is there a difference between "certainly is" and "is certainly"?

Hello!

Nice to be here

I'd like to ask if there is any difference between "certainly is" or "is certainly".

For example:
"There is hope that war will end in the future, which certainly is optimistic".

OR

"There is hope that war will end in the future, which is certainly optimistic".

Thanks!

Hi Clive!

Thanks a lot for your answer! I appreciated it very much!

Nice evening,

P.S.: I guess in Canada it's not that late, is it?

Hi,

It's 5 o'clock in the afternoon, just starting to get a little dark. How about where you are?
