在我自己真正意識到之前，克勞德通常能憑直覺知道我對事物的感覺。

This lack of acceptance is often attributed to the verb`s status as a back-formation fromintuition, but in fact the verb has existed as long as other back-formations, such asdiagnose and donate, that are now wholly acceptable. The source of the objections most likely lies in the fact that the verb is often used in reference to more trivial sorts of insight than would be permitted by a full appreciation of the traditional meaning ofintuition. In this connection, a somewhat greater percentage of the Panel, 4' percent,does acceptintuit in the sentence Mathematicians sometimes intuit the truth of a theorem long before they are able to prove it.

這種觀點上的差異通常歸咎于這個動詞作為源于intuition 的逆構詞的地位， 但是事實上這個動詞的存在時間與其他現(xiàn)已普遍接受的諸如diagnose 以及 donate 等逆構詞的存在時間一樣長。 反對的原因很可能在于這個動詞常用以指.較差的洞察力.，而此意義是被intuition 傳統(tǒng)意義的充分理解所禁止的。 在這方面，小組百分之四十六之多的人，確實接受intuit 用于句中 數(shù)學家們能在某些定理被證明以前憑直覺知道定理的正確性 參見 enthuse
