Insinuation
The word insinuation and the associated verb insinuate ( Latin insinuatio or insinuare ) literally means "to the bosom ( sinus ) bring", "set to the heart" so or "suggest", originally both in the sense of flattery as well as a formal entry .
Insinuation (rhetoric)
In educational language, the insinuation stands as a rhetorical means for “insinuation”, “suspicion”, “whispering”, “ suggestion ”. Anyone who insinuates something is deliberately making an allegation or an accusation in the room.
Example : “I actually think X is too intelligent to overlook such an error when checking.” With this, the speaker insinuates that X did not control the matter or deliberately let the error get away.
Insinuation (legal language)
Coming from Roman law , insinuation is an outdated term for a public, formal submission of a matter in court.
The formal confirmation of a court summons was designated as an insinuation document ( documentum insinuationis ) . Accordingly, the insinuation mandate was the person authorized to receive a subpoena.
