Imply vs Infer
Imply vs Infer
Do we infer what others imply, or do we imply what they infer? It’s confusing, isn’t it? It’s not so difficult, if we just think it through.
Am I implying that we need to think before we speak? Yes, I am! My implication is that you can easily infer my intentions as long as you take a moment to consider both meanings.
What are you implying? That means “What are you suggesting or hinting to be true?” An implication is a suggestion or a hint.
To accept that implication as probably truth is to “infer” it to be so. I infer from your implication. Or perhaps you infer from my implication. In any case, there’s nothing to infer unless there’s been something implied.
The answer is:
We infer what others imply.
or
Others infer what we imply.
