Aussagekräftigere

Aussagekräftigere is the comparative form of the German adjective aussagekräftig, meaning more informative, more meaningful, or more convincing. It is used to describe something that, in comparison with another thing, conveys more evidence, implications, or persuasive power. The term is common in journalism, science, education, and everyday speech when discussing the strength of a claim, data set, graphic, or argument.

Usage and grammar notes

Aussagekräftigere is used attributively before a noun and inflects according to gender, number, and case. For example: eine aussagekräftigere Begründung (a more convincing justification, feminine singular), aussagekräftigere Belege (more compelling evidence, plural). In predicative position, the form is aussagekräftiger: Der Bericht ist aussagekräftiger. The word often appears in formal or semi-formal contexts to emphasize increased evidential value or communicative impact.

Contexts and nuance

The term emphasizes the quality and strength of information or presentation. It can apply to data visualizations, statistical results, textual arguments, or comparative reports. While aussagekräftigere conveys stronger informativeness, it does not specify which aspects are improved; the surrounding noun clarifies the domain of comparison. In some cases, synonyms such as überzeugender or informativer may be used depending on the desired nuance.
