The word is "implying". It's the one who is reading or hearing something that does the inferring. Furthermore, you can infer something without its ever having been implied.

Absolutely correct. My wife infers things that I never implied all the time. I've often used the old Barry Farber line "Please do not infer what I did not imply.

That's a good one. So, other women do that, too?
