We talked about the difference between observation vs inference.

-Observation: A thing that you observe with your senses to gather information.

-Inference: A logical guess using knowledge you already have

Observation vs. Inference

Observation 2: The man is holding a pitchfork

Inference 1: They must be married because they're together
