Syn. Clear, Plain, Evi dent, Manifest, Obvious, patent, palpable, unmistakable, conspicuous. The first five words agree in representing the object as though viewed with the eye. What is clear can be seen without dimne ; what is plain can be seen by any one at the first glance, without search or study. Evi dent suggests something more of a mental proce , but no difficulty in seeing that the thing is true. Manifest is a degree stronger than evident, the mind getting the truth as by an intuition. Obvious by derivation applies to that which lies so directly in our way that we cannot help coming upon it and seeing it; that which is obvious needs no pointing out or explaining. We speak of a clear case of self-deception; a duty that is plain; an evident mistake; a manifest misunderstanding; an obvious inference, not needing to be actually put into words. II. n. 11.
