Unsaid yet understood (5)

I believe the answer is:

tacit

'unsaid yet understood' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tacit that I've seen before include "Respect, admiration" , "Silent but implied" , "Implicitly understood" , "without speaking" , "Aircraft engine casing" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal and The New York Times.
