Usage

There is a distinction in meaning between infer and imply. In the sentence the speaker implied that the General had been a traitor, implied means that the speaker subtly suggested that this man was a traitor (though nothing so explicit was actually stated). However, in we inferred from his words that the General had been a traitor, inferred means that something in the speaker’s words enabled the listeners to deduce that the man was a traitor. The two words infer and imply can describe the same event, but from different angles. Use of infer to mean imply, as in are you inferring that I’m a liar? (instead of are you implying that I’m a liar?), is an extremely common error.

Origin

Late 15th century (in the sense 'bring about, inflict'): from Latin inferre 'bring in, bring about' (in medieval Latin 'deduce'), from in- 'into' + ferre 'bring'.

The early sense recorded for infer is ‘bring about, inflict’ from Latin inferre ‘bring in, bring about’, which in medieval Latin came to mean ‘deduce’. The base elements are in- ‘into’ and ferre ‘bring’. Infer expresses the idea that something in the speaker's words enables the listener to ‘deduce’ what is meant; imply (Late Middle English) from Latin implicare ‘fold in’, expresses the notion that something in the speaker's words ‘suggests’ a certain meaning.
