문화적 배경
In Arabic rhetoric, the concept of 'Iḍāḥ' (clarification) is central to effective communication. It stems from the root 'W-Ḍ-Ḥ', which relates to things being visible or bright like the morning light. Using this phrase suggests you are 'bringing light' to a topic that might be 'dark' or confusing.
The 'An' Connection
Always remember to follow the phrase with `أن` (that). It makes your sentence flow naturally into the explanation.

What It Means
Think of this phrase as a verbal highlighter. You use it when you want to make sure a specific point isn't missed. It is more than just talking; it is about precision. It tells your listener, 'Stop right here, this part matters.' It suggests that without this specific detail, the whole picture might be misunderstood. It’s a way to take control of the narrative and ensure everyone is on the same page.
How To Use It
You will usually find this phrase at the beginning of a sentence. It is almost always followed by the word أن (that). For example, you would say من المهم الإيضاح أن... followed by your main point. It functions as a transition. It bridges what was just said to the specific detail you want to highlight. It sounds sophisticated and very polished. Use it when you want to sound like you have your thoughts fully organized.
When To Use It
This is a powerhouse phrase for professional environments. Use it in a business meeting to clarify a budget point. Use it in an email to ensure there is no confusion about a deadline. It is also great for serious personal conversations. If you feel a friend has misinterpreted your intentions, this phrase sets a respectful, serious tone. It signals that you are being deliberate and thoughtful with your words.
When NOT To Use It
Avoid using this for trivial or everyday casual things. If you are asking a friend for a piece of gum, don't say this. It will make you sound like a robot or a lawyer. Using it with a toddler might also be overkill—unless you're having a very intense talk about nap time. In very relaxed settings, it can feel a bit stiff or even slightly condescending if not used carefully. Keep it for when the 'clarification' actually carries some weight.
Cultural Background
Arabic culture places a high value on eloquence and 'Bayan' (clarity). Historically, being able to explain complex ideas simply was a sign of wisdom. This phrase is a modern tool for that ancient value. In professional Arab circles, being direct but polite is key. This phrase allows you to be firm about a point without being rude. It shows you respect the listener’s time by being as clear as possible.
Common Variations
You will often hear من المهم توضيح (Min al-muhimm tawḍīḥ) as a close sibling. The word توضيح is slightly more common in everyday formal speech. إيضاح, however, feels a tiny bit more academic or official. You might also hear يجدر الإيضاح (It is worth clarifying). All of these serve the same purpose: making sure the truth isn't lost in translation or conversation.
사용 참고사항
This phrase is high-register and best suited for professional or academic writing and speaking. In casual conversation, it may come across as stiff or overly dramatic unless used for humorous effect.
The 'An' Connection
Always remember to follow the phrase with `أن` (that). It makes your sentence flow naturally into the explanation.
Don't Overuse with Friends
If you use this phrase too much in casual settings, you might sound like you're giving a press conference. Save it for when you really need to be heard.
The Power of the Root
The word `إيضاح` comes from the root for 'light'. Think of yourself as turning on a lamp in a dark room when you use this phrase.
