Predicting

A Speaker states or makes known a future Eventuality on the basis of some Evidence. Instead of (or in addition to) a Speaker, a Medium may also be mentioned. Likewise, a more general Topic may be stated instead of an Eventuality. The Weather Centre predicted that it would be warmer but wet for the weekend. Another seer who forecast a Tory majority -- without compromising his impartiality -- was Sir Robin Day . Based on current calculations, the European market is forecast to grow 18.1% by the end of next fiscal year. The website claimed to prophesy what the world would be like in the near-future.
