A menudo usamos "suppose" para decir "imagino / imaginaba" o "supongo"
I suppose you'll be meeting Danielle when you go to Paris? When you weren't there, I supposed you must have been held up. I suppose you two know each other?
Ten en cuenta que "suppose" no es utilizado normalmente en la forma continua. No decimos normalmente "I am supposing"
- Now I suppose we'll have to do something else.
- We're waiting for John and I suppose he must be stuck in traffic.
- At this moment I suppose it doesn't matter.
También es importante saber que "suppose not" o "guess not" se usa en negativo , y no en el otro verbo.
- I don't suppose you know where Mary is?
- I don't suppose he'll do anything.
- I don't suppose you have a Nokia phone charger here?
Cuando se responde a una idea con "suppose", puedes usar "so" para evitar repetir la idea que ya ha sido expresada.
- Is Susan coming to this meeting? ~ I suppose so.
