1. express

   Both explicit and express are opposed to what is merely implicit or implied. That which is explicit is unfolded, so that it may not be obscure, doubtful, or ambiguous; that which is express is uttered or stated so decidedly that it may not be forgotten nor overlooked. An explicit statement is too clear to be misunderstood; an express command is too emphatic to be disregarded. Compare CLEAR.

   Synonyms:
   explicit

   Antonyms:
   ambiguous, doubtful, implicit, implied, indefinite, indeterminate, uncertain, vague
