deducir

to deduce

verb deh-doo-SEER Rare

to deduct

Usage Note

Deducir covers both logical deduction (deducir una conclusión = 'to deduce a conclusion') and financial deduction (deducir impuestos = 'to deduct taxes'). It is a -ir irregular verb conjugated like conducir — the first-person singular present is deduzco, and the preterite is irregular (deduje, dedujiste...).
