Mind & Emotions Mental States

Origin: From Latin supponere (to place under); via supposition.

Also means

supposition

Usage Note

Suposición refers to an unverified assumption or hypothesis put forward without full evidence. It pairs naturally with hacer una suposición ('to make an assumption') and basarse en suposiciones ('to rely on assumptions'). Unlike hipótesis, which implies a more systematic conjecture, suposición often carries a mildly dismissive tone.

Examples

"Eso es solo una suposición tuya."

Natural Translation

That is just an assumption of yours.

Literal Translation
