仮説: hypothesis. The Japanese noun '仮説 (かせつ)' means 'hypothesis'. It refers to a proposed explanation or assumption made on the basis of limited evidence, used as a starting point for further investigation. This term is commonly used in scientific, academic, or analytical contexts. For example: The scientist proposed a new hypothesis「科学者は新しい仮説を提案した」(かがくしゃはあたらしいかせつをていあんした). Testing the hypothesis is the next step「仮説を検証することが次のステップだ」(かせつをけんしょうすることがつぎのステップだ). The word can also be used in everyday contexts to describe a tentative idea or theory.
