문화적 배경
The phrase reflects the importance of logic and rhetoric in Lusophone education and social discourse. It is a linguistic tool used to build consensus by framing an opinion as an objective, undeniable fact. While it sounds formal, it is frequently used in daily news and talk shows to simplify complex topics.
The 'Que' Connection
Always remember to include the 'que'. Without it, the sentence feels like a cliffhanger that never ends.
Don't Overuse It
If you start every sentence with this, you might sound like a know-it-all. Use it sparingly for maximum impact.

What It Means
É evidente que is your go-to phrase for stating the obvious with a bit of polish. It is like pointing at the sun and saying it is bright. You use it to introduce a fact that requires no further proof. It sounds more sophisticated than just saying claro. It bridges the gap between simple observation and logical conclusion.
How To Use It
Place it right at the start of your sentence. It acts as a foundation for the rest of your statement. In Portuguese, this phrase usually triggers the indicative mood because you are stating a certainty. For example, É evidente que ela gosta de você. You are not guessing; you are declaring a visible truth. It is the linguistic version of a confident nod.
When To Use It
Use it when the evidence is right in front of everyone. Use it in a work meeting to highlight a successful trend. Use it with friends when discussing a movie plot that was way too predictable. It is perfect for texting when someone asks a question with an obvious answer. It adds a layer of 'duh' but keeps it classy and respectful.
When NOT To Use It
Avoid it if you are actually unsure about something. Using it for guesses makes you sound a bit arrogant or delusional. Don't use it if you are trying to be extremely humble or indirect. In very heated arguments, it might sound a bit condescending. If your boss is wrong, maybe don't start your correction with this phrase. It might feel like you are calling them slow.
Cultural Background
Portuguese speakers value eloquence and clear logic in conversation. This phrase comes from Latin roots and feels very 'Romance language.' It reflects a culture that loves to debate and establish clear positions. It is common in both Portugal and Brazil. It shows you are a person who pays attention to details. It is the mark of someone who has their thoughts organized.
Common Variations
If you want to sound even fancier, try Torna-se evidente que. For a more casual vibe, most people just drop it for Tá na cara que. In a legal or academic setting, you might hear É manifesto que. If you are feeling extra emphatic, add an adverb: É perfeitamente evidente que. Each variation changes the 'volume' of your certainty but keeps the core meaning intact.
사용 참고사항
This phrase is neutral-to-formal. It is safe for work but common enough for the street. Avoid using it with people you want to avoid sounding patronizing toward.
The 'Que' Connection
Always remember to include the 'que'. Without it, the sentence feels like a cliffhanger that never ends.
Don't Overuse It
If you start every sentence with this, you might sound like a know-it-all. Use it sparingly for maximum impact.
The Brazilian 'Tá na cara'
In Brazil, if you want to be super casual, say 'Tá na cara que'. It literally means 'It's on the face that' and is the ultimate slang version.
