☆ conclude　　結論を下す
============================
Today’s word is “conclude”. It means that you have decided that something is true, based on the information that you know. Have you heard of this word? Do you ever use it? If it’s a new word to you, or even if it’s not, a great way to increase your vocabulary – as you know! – is to learn similar words at the same time. So here are some examples of words you could use instead:
conclude – She concluded that she had no choice but to believe him.
decide – She decided that she had no choice but to believe him.
gather – She gathered that she had no choice but to believe him.
infer – She inferred that she had no choice but to believe him.
You can also learn other uses for the same word. For example, when you conclude something, you end it. For example, “The event concluded with dinner and speeches.” This is the formal use of the word, and an alternative meaning is “end” or “finish” something.
