Tydliggör

Tydliggör is a Swedish verb meaning to make something clearer or easier to understand, to explain, illuminate, or clarify. It is used in a variety of contexts, including education, journalism, research, and public communication, where the aim is to reduce ambiguity and improve comprehension.

The verb is a compound formed from tydlig (clear) and göra (to make). The infinitive is tydliggöra, the present tense form is tydliggör (for example, han tydliggör), the past tense is tydliggjorde, and the supine is tydliggjort. The passive form is tydliggörs. A related noun is tydliggörande, referring to the act or process of clarifying.

Usage notes: Tydliggör often implies providing explanations, examples, or demonstrations that reveal the essential points more explicitly. It is commonly used to describe actions by teachers, writers, editors, or spokespersons who aim to make a concept, process, or policy easier to grasp for an audience.

Examples:

- Läraren tydliggör begreppet för eleverna.

- Artikeln tydliggör hur lagen tillämpas i praktiken.

Tydliggör is closely related to, but distinct from, förtydliga and klargöra. While all three involve making information clearer, tydliggör often emphasizes explicit demonstration or illustration to remove ambiguity.
