easily
Without much effort or difficulty; easily. It is used almost exclusively as an adverb with verbs such as 'erkennen' (to recognize), 'sehen' (to see), or 'vorstellen' (to imagine).
Man kann unschwer erkennen, dass er sehr aufgeregt ist.
One can easily recognize that he is very nervous.
The word is a combination of the prefix 'un-' (not) and the adjective 'schwer' (in the sense of difficult). So 'unschwer' literally means 'not hard' or 'not difficult'.
Es war unschwer zu erraten, wer das Geschenk gekauft hatte.
It was easy to guess who had bought the gift.
'Unschwer' (easily) is almost always combined with verbs of perception or understanding. Typical verbs are 'erkennen' (to recognize), 'sehen' (to see), 'feststellen' (to determine), and 'sich vorstellen' (to imagine).
Wie man unschwer sehen kann, wurde hier nicht gut gearbeitet.
As one can easily see, the work here was not done well.
This adverb belongs more to written or formal language. In everyday conversation, people would often use 'leicht' (easily) or 'einfach' (simply/easily) instead.
Aus den vorliegenden Daten lässt sich unschwer schließen, dass die Nachfrage gestiegen ist.
From the available data, it can easily be concluded that demand has increased.
simple / just
Einfach and unschwer can express that something can be recognized without much difficulty. Einfach is the normal, versatile choice in everyday German; unschwer sounds formal and is used almost exclusively as an adverb with verbs such as erkennen (to recognize) or sehen (to see). Both forms are possible, but they signal different styles.
Die Ursache ist unschwer zu erkennen.
The cause is readily apparent.
Die Ursache ist einfach zu erkennen.
