Etymology
The word "surmisable" is derived from Old French "surmisable," itself from the verb "surmiser," meaning "to suspect" or "to guess." The Latin root of "surmiser" is "surmisāre," which means "to suppose" or "to conjecture."
Meaning
Surmisable means capable of being guessed or inferred, but not definitely known. It refers to something that is based on reasonable assumptions or deductions, rather than proven facts.
Origin
The word "surmisable" first appeared in English in the 15th century. It was initially used in legal contexts to describe evidence that was not conclusive but could be used to support a particular argument or claim. Over time, the word came to be used more generally to refer to anything that is not certain but is still plausible or probable.
