implied assumption

Read a random definition: interested witness

A quick definition of implied assumption:

An implied assumption is something that is taken for granted or assumed to be true without being explicitly stated. It can also refer to the act of taking on someone else's debt or obligation without it being explicitly agreed upon. For example, if someone buys a piece of land that has a mortgage on it and deducts the mortgage amount from the purchase price, they may be considered to have assumed the debt even if it was not explicitly stated in the agreement.

A more thorough explanation:

An implied assumption is a fact or statement that is taken for granted or assumed without being explicitly stated. It is often used in arguments or discussions where certain beliefs or ideas are assumed to be true without being directly stated.

During a debate about gun control, one person argues that "we need to protect our Second Amendment rights." The implied assumption in this statement is that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to own guns.

Another example of an implied assumption is when a person says "I don't eat meat." The implied assumption here is that the person is a vegetarian.

These examples illustrate how implied assumptions can be used to make arguments or statements without explicitly stating certain beliefs or ideas. It is important to be aware of implied assumptions in order to fully understand the meaning behind someone's words.

There’s someone I found on here with the username threeoutchange and if my understanding is correct that’s a reference to the debut album by a pretty cool 90s-00s Japanese band called Supercar. I geeked a little
