Question

conjecture n.推测；臆测v.推测 (1) 但曼斯基的模型并无法证实这个推测。(2) 关于这个问题不可臆测。(3) 时序保护还只是个臆测而已，所以时光旅行仍是可能的。(4) 谁能推测出明天的天气情况？ You can see how the word conjecture means that you create a theory or opinion about something without basing it in fact because the original definition of conjecture, from Old French, is "interpretation of signs and omens." Since signs and omens are pretty subjective, it makes sense that the word would then move to its current meaning. However, even though it only seems like weather reports are conjectures, they are actually based on evidence!

英 [kən'dʒektʃə(r)] 美 [kən'dʒektʃər] (1) But Manski's model did not confirm this conjecture.(2) No conjecture can be offered on the subject.(3) Chronology protection is still just a conjecture, so time travel remains a possibility.(4) Who can conjecture about tomorrow's weather conditions? Can you guess what conjecture means? It's a word to use when you are not sure of something and have to "guess or surmise." 1[N-VAR 可变名词]推测；猜测 A conjecture is a conclusion that is based on information that is not certain or complete.   [FORMAL 正式]That was a conjecture, not a fact...那只是猜测，不是事实。There are several conjectures...存在着几种猜测。The attitudes of others were matters of conjecture although there were plenty of rumours about how individuals had behaved.尽管对个人的表现存在很多谣传，但他人的看法还只是一些猜测。2[VERB 动词]推测；猜测；揣测 When you conjecture, you form an opinion or reach a conclusion on the basis of information that is not certain or complete.   [V that]  [V]  [Also V wh]  [FORMAL 正式]He conjectured that some individuals may be able to detect major calamities...他猜测说有些人也许能够察觉重大灾难。This may be true or partly true； we are all conjecturing here.这可能属实或者部分属实，我们都是在这儿揣测。
