I need to know how to say the present, past and future tense of "imply" in Latin. I don't know much Latin, I just need the grammatically correct way to say: "Implied ______"
For example, for "Implied Power" Google says "Sequitur Imperium."
I don't trust computers.
I would prefer the classical Latin way of saying it, but it honestly doesn't matter. In fact I don't even need Latin, it's just a habit.
The closest thing I could find to the verb [to] imply (at least in the way implied is used in this context) in my dictionary was adfirmō, -āre, -āvī, -ātum. In this case you'd want to use the passive perfect participle, adfirmātum plus the adverb nōn. As for the noun power, you have a number of options depending on what kind of power you're referring to:
The pairs for each participle-noun pair are as follows:
When all of these are translated literally, they come out to mean something along the lines of "[type of power] having not been stated" or "[type of power] not stated", which isn't perfect, but probably as close as you can get to the English idiom "implied power" with Latin.
Minor edit:
If the phrase “implied power” is being used to describe power of a strictly legal kind, then the word auctōritās alone would suffice, since from a pragmatic standpoint, this would would have already meant “implied [legal] power” to a Roman.
