Assume as a fact (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

posit

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">assume as a fact</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for posit that I've seen before include "advance" , "Suppose" , "Put forward (argument)" , "Lay down as principle" , "Propose" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
