English to afrikaans meaning of

Die woordeboekbetekenis van die woord "beweer" is dat dit gebruik word om iets te beskryf wat beweer of beweer is dat dit waar is, maar wat nie bewys of bevestig is nie. Dit word dikwels gebruik om aan te dui dat daar 'n mate van twyfel of onsekerheid bestaan oor die waarheid van 'n spesifieke eis of beskuldiging. Byvoorbeeld, "die vermeende dief is op kamera vasgevang, maar die beeldmateriaal is nie baie duidelik nie." Dit beteken dat iemand van diefstal beskuldig is, maar dit is nog nie seker dat hulle die werklike skuldige is nie.
