inferencia

a conclusion one reaches from the existing evidence or known facts

What is an "inference"?

An inference is a conclusion that one draws based on existing evidence or known facts. It involves using available information to make a reasoned judgment or assumption about something that is not directly stated. Inferences are made by examining clues or patterns, and they help individuals understand or predict outcomes based on what is already known. This process allows one to fill in missing details and reach conclusions that are logically supported by the facts at hand.
