Vysvetli

Vysvetli is a Slovak word that functions primarily as the second-person singular imperative of the verb vysvetliť, meaning to explain. In everyday use it is a direct request to someone to clarify or elaborate a point, as in the phrase “Vysvetli to” (Explain that). The infinitive form is vysvetliť, and the imperative has two common forms: vysvetli for informal singular, and vysvetlite for formal singular or plural.

The noun form vysvetlenie, meaning explanation, and related derivatives such as vysvetľovať (to explain repeatedly or generally) show the range of related meanings in Slovak. The concept behind vysvetli is to illuminate or make something clear in a figurative sense, aligning with the broader metaphor of enlightenment.

Etymology traces vysvetliť to a prefixal formation involving vy- plus a root related to light or brightness, reflecting the historical sense of clarifying or illuminating information. Over time, the word has become a standard part of instructional and communicative language, common in education, journalism, and everyday discourse.

As a term, vysvetli is primarily encountered as a verb form rather than a proper noun. There are no widely recognized organizations or brands universally identified simply as “Vysvetli,” and any such usage would depend on context or branding choices in specific media or products.
