(pronounced TA-sit; the “a” is like the “a” in bad or cat)

This sweet little adjective is used to describe an idea or feeling that is indicated or implied, though not truly expressed. Additionally, it can describe something that is conveyed without words. We remember its definition by relating sounds. The “s” sound in the word reminds us of the word “silent” or the expression “shhhh.” Just a thought.

Example: Due to their long and successful working and personal relationships, the designer and his client had a tacit agreement that her projects would always take priority.
