Suspect

怀疑

Unless you are talking about a suspect in a trial, avoid saying you "suspect" anything. You're not Sherlock Holmes. Just use direct terms: You know an investor is pulling out of the project, and here's why; or you have facts to support your conclusion on a new marketing plan.

除非你在讨论一个审判中的嫌疑人，否则不要说你‘怀疑’某事。你不是福尔摩斯。就用那些直接的措辞：你知道投资者在退出项目，这是原因；或者你有证据支撑你对一项新市场计划的结论。

I suspect there will be a company takeover.

我怀疑公司要被收购了。

I suspect there is a catch to their proposal offer.

我怀疑他们的提议另有隐情。

重重的疑虑只会让人心生不安，还会影响到你的人际关系。快快把疑虑从你的言谈中抹掉吧！勇敢接受你所看到的，好好想想怎样交涉更有效。

Unlike the previous words, which mostly affects the speaker, suspect brings a shadow of suspicion on another person’s motive and sows intrigue and fear in others. Verbalizing your negative thinking contaminates those around you. It causes low morale and an air of distrust that affects relationships and productivity. Drop suspect altogether from your thoughts and speech. Stop judging, accept news and gestures at face value, and improve your interpersonal skills.
