/'tæsit/

tacit is an adjective for something understood or implied without being directly stated.

This lesson looks at the useful nuance behind unspoken meanings, including formal uses and the special phrase tacit knowledge. Watch the full lesson to learn how to recognize and use tacit naturally.
