in thread [OT] Astronomical puzzling about daylight hours at different latitudes

thanks etj,

probably yes, but as I choice always English words with Latin origins (...well: roots ;) I already known the existence of to deduce but in Eatalian we have both: to deduce and to desume with the second with a bit of personal sense, not irrational but somenthing bound to your own perception. The two verbs are generally used as synonyms but the semantic is, at least for me, a bit different.

desumere: derivation from Latin desumĕre (de-sumĕre) to take for yourself
dedurre: derivation from Latin deducĕre (de-ducĕre) to take from smth

    Wiktionary: desume

    But yeah, no one ever uses that (anymore?).
