The "point" thing reminds me: there seems to be no word(s) for
"explicit" and "implication".

    ex·plic·it (ĭk-splĭs'ĭt) 
    adj.

    Fully and clearly expressed; leaving nothing implied.
    Fully and clearly defined or formulated.

In the passed I've referred to this problem as "there's no word for
"specific""; there is steci, but it's really a very different
meaning.

I've been stumped on this one, quite literally, for years.

Help?

-Robin
