Is there an English idiom for 'your silence implies your consent'?
I am not sure this qualifies as an idiom, but is a common enough expression: I would express it "unless I hear otherwise".
Unless I hear otherwise, I am going to leave at 4:00.
Speak now or forever hold your peace.
There is a legal phrase 'silence is acquiescence', which I have seen used somewhat in business.
The trick, in business, is to soften it a bit to show that it is trying to spare someone from being obliged to reply (to an email, for example).
I have used this, as an example:
Dear team,
I propose that we reboot the server in 5 minutes.
No reply necessary. Silence is acquiescence.
It's possible that the word you're looking for is tacit, which means to be understood or implied without being stated.
