Definition
"Explicitar" means to clearly and explicitly state or make something known, especially ideas, assumptions, or information that might otherwise remain implicit or unclear. It is often used in philosophy to clarify underlying premises to avoid misunderstandings.
The verb "explicitar" comes from the Latin root 'explicitare,' which means to unfold or explain thoroughly.
