There are slight differences in register and patterns of use. If you make sth clear/plain, you do so deliberately because you want people to understand sth; if you make sth obvious, you usually do it without meaning to. 这些词意思几乎相同，只是在语体风格和句型使用上稍有区别。make sth clear/plain表示刻意使别人明白；make sth obvious通常表示并非刻意◆I hope I make myself clear / plain.我希望我讲得清楚。◆I hope I make myself obvious. ◆Try not to make your dislike so obvious.尽量不要把你的厌恶表现得那么明显。◆Try not to make it so clear/plain. In the expressions clear majority, for obvious reasons, for no apparent reason and plain to see, none of the other words can be used instead. Apparent and evident are both rather formal. They can always be replaced by obvious. Obvious and evident can be used before a noun for an emotion, meaning that the emotion is easy to see with your eyes. 在clear majority（明显多数）、for obvious reasons（因为显而易见的原因）、for no apparent reason（没有明显的原因）和plain to see（显而易见）这些固定短语中，表示明显的词不能替换。apparent和evident都很正式，可用obvious替换。obvious 和evident均可用于表示情感的名词前，表示这种情感表现得很明显◆Jane took the letter and read it out with obvious / evident reluctance.简接过信，显然很不情愿地大声读出来。In apparent reluctance, apparent has the meaning of 'seeming'. * apparent reluctance表示看上去似乎不情愿。 see also apparent ⇨ apparent ■ ˌself-ˈevident so obvious that it needs no further proof or explanation 显而易见的；不言而喻的；明摆着的◆The dangers of such action are self-evident.这样子行动，危险是明摆着的。◆a self-evident truth不证自明的真理 |
