explicitly
Meaning
In a clear and detailed manner, leaving no room for ambiguity or misinterpretation; often used in contexts where precision and clarity are paramount, particularly in legal, academic, or technical discourse.
💡 While "explicitly" conveys clarity, it is often misused in contexts where a degree of nuance or implied meaning is more appropriate; care should be taken to ensure that the term is used when absolute clarity is necessary.
