Clarifie

Clarifie is a form of the French verb clarifier, not an English word on its own. In standard French, clarifie is the third-person singular present indicative form: il clarifie, elle clarifie, meaning “he clarifies” or “she clarifies.” It can also serve as the imperative for the informal second person singular: Clarifie! meaning “Clarify!” The imperative sense shares the same spelling as the present-tense form.

Usage and meaning: Clarifier is a transitive verb that takes a direct object. It is used to make something clearer or more understandable. For example, “Il clarifie sa position” means “He clarifies his position,” and “Clarifie ta demande” means “Clarify your request.” The form clarifie appears in sentences that state a clarification or give a directive to explain something more clearly.

Origin and conjugation: Clarifier comes from Old French clarifier, from Latin clarificare, meaning to make clear. As a regular -er verb, clarifier follows standard French conjugation. The infinitive is clarifier; present tense forms include clarifie (je), clarifies (tu), clarifie (il/elle), clarifions (nous), clarifiez (vous), clarifient (ils/elles).

Usage note: Clarifie is common in formal writing, journalism, education, and everyday speech when precision or additional explanation is required. It is one of the many inflected forms that demonstrate how French expresses mood, person, and number through verb endings.
