ausdrücklichen

ausdrücklichen is a German adjective that translates to "explicit" or "express" in English. It is used to describe something that is stated or shown clearly and directly, leaving no room for doubt or ambiguity. The word derives from the German verb "ausdrücken," meaning "to express" or "to state."

When used in a sentence, ausdrücklichen modifies a noun, indicating that the quality or characteristic being described is plainly evident. For example, "eine ausdrückliche Erlaubnis" means an "explicit permission," meaning that permission was clearly and directly granted. Similarly, "eine ausdrückliche Warnung" translates to an "explicit warning," signifying a warning that was stated unmistakably.

The adjective can be used in various contexts, including legal documents, contracts, instructions, and everyday communication. Its purpose is to emphasize clarity and to ensure that a message is understood precisely as intended. In legal settings, for instance, an ausdrückliche statement is often required to avoid misinterpretations or disputes. It signifies a deliberate and unambiguous communication of intent or information. The absence of the word ausdrücklichen might imply that something is only implied or can be inferred, rather than directly stated.
