implied understanding
Etymology
'tacitly-presented' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'tacitus,' where 'tacere' meant 'to be silent,' combined with 'presented' from Latin 'praesentare,' meaning 'to place before.'
'tacitus' transformed into the English word 'tacit,' and 'praesentare' became 'presented,' eventually forming the modern English term 'tacitly-presented.'
Initially, 'tacitus' meant 'silent,' and 'praesentare' meant 'to place before,' evolving into the current meaning of 'implied or understood without being directly stated.'
