if you consider something plausible, you tend to believe that this "something" is true. |

I first met the word "plausible" in a chess article. A player thought that one particular move was plausible, i.e. it could be considered correct and winning. However, later on that player lost because the move failed him. So, I have an impression that "plausible" means something that seems "correct" or "reliable" but in fact it is not... I might be wrong though...
