definite, certain, positive, sure

这组词都有“无疑的，确信的”的意思，其区别是：

certain与sure同义，但语气比sure强，着重指有确切理由或不容置疑的证据所支持的确信。

positive语气强烈，指对自己的看法或作的结论的正确性有不可动摇的信念。

sure侧重主观上对某事确信无疑。

clear, obvious, evident, apparent, manifest, definite, plain, distinct

这组词都有“清楚的，明白的，明显的”的意思，其区别是：

clear普通用词，侧重清楚明白。

obvious语气较强，指极为明显，有目共睹，无需说明和论证。

evident指根据事实成为显然的。

apparent强调显而易见或一想便知。这个词从动词appear派生而来，故有时含有表面如此而事实上未必的意味。

manifest语义较强，书面用词，强调一目了然，暗示不要任何推论就一清二楚。

definite语气肯定，着重明白无误，无可怀疑。

plain普通用词，含义与clear很接近，可通用，但plain着重简单明了，不复杂。

distinct较正式用词，指轮廓的清楚或定义、含义的明确，不会弄错。
