The meaning of explicit: (or express)
If something is communicated clearly, without any deeper analysis necessary, then it is explicit. In some texts, the term express is used exactly in the same meaning. The term couples explicit-implicit and express-implied function exactly the same.
The meaning of implicit:
If something is not express directly and needs a deeper analysis to discover the correct meaning, then it is implicit. In some texts, the term implied is used exactly in the same meaning. Both terms derive from the verb to imply, which means to convey an idea in an indirect way.
Their adverb forms are as follows:
express -> expressly
explicit -> explicitly
implied -> implicitly
implicit -> implicitly
