二、詞義辨析：還有哪些詞含義“清楚明白”的意思嗎？
apparent, obvious, evident, clear, plain, distinct, definite, manifest
這些形容詞均含“清楚的，明白的，明顯的”之意。
apparent強調顯而易見或一想便知。這個詞從動詞appear派生而來，故有時含有表面如此而事實上未必的意味。
obvious語氣較強，指極爲明顯，有目共睹，無需說明和論證。
evident指根據事實成爲顯然的。
clear普通用詞，側重清楚明白。
plain普通用詞，含義與clear很接近，可通用，但plain着重簡單明瞭，不復雜。
distinct較正式用詞，指輪廓的清楚或定義、含義的明確，不會弄錯。
definite語氣肯定，着重明白無誤，無可懷疑。
manifest語義較強，書面用詞，強調一目瞭然，暗示不要任何推論就一清二楚。
