This means several things. It can be a scientific term that means a set of statements made to explain an event. It can mean the study of analysis as opposed to practice. It can be a belief or principle. Here are some examples of each.

  • I have a theory about how that machine works, but it's not tested.
  • He studied Music Theory in school.
  • In theory, this should work.
  • The police staked out the house on the theory that criminals return to the scene of their crime.

I know the theory of attentive listening but I'm useless at the practice.

An example is: I have a theory that you don't have a dictionary on hand or are just exceedingly lazy.

Many scientists accept the theory that the universe is growing larger.

Darwin spent more than twenty years working on his theory of evolution.

The scientific theory took many years to develop.
