According to the Wiki entry, 'sontaku' is close to surmise or read between the lines, which was the original meaning in ancient Chinese. The best answer today is currying favor or seeking to gain favor by flattery, especially with regard to someone who is superior in rank. The word 'sontaku' was popularized by a corrupt schoolmaster who curried favor with the former prime minister's wife.
