The statement, "Presupposition is the prior knowledge that the speaker assumes the listener has that affects how the utterance is stated and what words are chosen." is true.

A presupposition (or PSP) in the pragmatics branch of linguistics is an implicit assumption about the world or background belief connected to an utterance whose veracity is assumed to be true in speech. For a speech to be regarded suitable in context, a presupposition must be mutually known or assumed by the speaker and listener. Whether the statement is made as an assertion, a denial, or an inquiry, it will typically still be a required assumption since it may be connected to a particular lexical word or grammatical construction (a presupposition trigger) in the statement.

Presupposition is when a speaker makes decisions about how to utter something and what words to use based on what they believe the listener already knows.

What can a justice write when he or she does not agree with the majority?
garri49 [273]
Answer: Dissenting Opinion

-----

Usually when decision is written, justices can write a concurring opinion if they would like to add something to the decision or if they agree with the decision, but disagrees with the reasoning. On the other hand, if they do not agree with the majority (aka the decision), they can write a dissenting opinion.
