An inference is the act of coming to a logical conclusion without actually witnessing or having first hand knowledge of an event.

"I saw the man in a jewelry store picking out a wedding ring, so I inferred he was going to ask his significant other to marry him."

"I saw smoking coming out of the kitchen, so I inferred there was a fire."

"I saw her limping, so I inferred she'd hurt herself."

"When I walked into the house I smelled alcohol, so I inferred someone had been drinking."

Pretend you are going to see a movie. You can infer, which means use the clues around you to figure out something, that you may wait in line for a ticket, or buy popcorn, or watch the movie on a dark screen. A lot of the time you infer with out even knowing it. Inferring is not always right. You can still be wrong.

Making observations and inferences are important skills to have in most careers. A teacher may observe that a student making the same mistake in arithmetic, then infer that the student must need to re-learn that piece of information. A detective may observe behavior in a suspect that would lead them to infer that the suspect may be withholding information.
