Clarity and Distinctness

Clarity and distinctness are qualities that describe how well we perceive or understand something. Clarity refers to the overall clear and transparent nature of an idea, image, or perception—free from confusion or ambiguity. Distinctness emphasizes how sharply defined or specific that perception is, allowing us to differentiate it from others. Together, they ensure that we not only see or understand something clearly but also recognize its unique features without ambiguity, leading to a more accurate and confident grasp of what is presented.
