I Just Know
Stable๐UniversalDefinition
Used to speculate about something with confident certainty, usually about someone's behavior or habits. 'I just know he cried in the car after that' = 'I'm certain that's what happened.'
Translation for Parents
It's confident speculation. 'I just know she practiced that speech 50 times' means 'I can tell she rehearsed a lot.' It's gossip with conviction. Your kid has strong intuition about other people's private behavior and they're not shy about sharing it.
