Word Correction

Hi

Can I use the word "conjecture" instead of the word "presume"?. And, if I do, will it sound wrong?

Thanks.

These two words are not usually interchangeable. Have you looked at their definitions in a dictionary? Conjecture has a far stronger connection to guesswork and lack of facts.
