I presume意思

"I presume" 是一個英語短語，意思是「我假設」、「我猜想」或「我推測」。這個短語通常用於表達說話者對某件事情的看法或預期，但並沒有足夠的證據來證實這個看法。以下是一些例子：

1. A: "Where is John?" B: "I presume he's in his office." (B is guessing that John is in his office, but is not sure.)

2. A: "Do you think it will rain today?" B: "I presume not, but I haven't checked the weather report." (B is assuming it won't rain, but has not confirmed this with the weather report.)

3. A: "Have you seen my keys?" B: "I presume you left them in the car." (B is guessing that A left their keys in the car, based on past behavior or context.)

在使用 "I presume" 時，說話者通常會意識到自己的看法可能是錯誤的，因為他們沒有確鑿的證據。這種表達方式比較委婉，給對方留下了一定的餘地和空間。
