When I was trying to buy a music at iTunes Store. pick up one among others. The word "explicit" is written in red beside the name of the music.
What does it mean?
I looked up the word in the dictionary, even in English-English dictionary.
It says that adj. fully and clearly expressed.(WEBSTER'S DICTIONARY)
I assumed that one particular music was more clearly recorded than others, but it woundn't happen by digital recording.
I'm never going to get this word down straight.  |

It means that the song or songs contain "explicit language," that is, naughty words and coarseness, so if you don't want to hear the naughty words, or you don't want your children to hear them, either buy the edited version or look for something else.

Thank to your explanation, I learned practical usage of the word.
I'm not gonna forget the meaning of explicit. |
