define explicit and implicit meanings

OpenStudy (lelollipop):

Explicit is to deliberately say what your message or idea you're trying to project is. Implicit is to imply something through vague meaning or metaphorically, or not explicit, though the same message is made

OpenStudy (lelollipop):

does that help? :-]

OpenStudy (taking_ls):

can you help me with one more

OpenStudy (lelollipop):

sure thing :)

OpenStudy (taking_ls):

how can you identify main idea, main idea statements, and support for the main idea

OpenStudy (lelollipop):

Identify: by finding key words or statements stating the author's idea. It can also be found in the topic sentence or through the paragraphs with key words that are linked to the title. Main idea statements: I'm not really sure what text this could be referring to, but statements are typically stated in the introduction or body paragraphs. Support: words that back up the idea can be located through evidence provided in the text, such as quotes, refrences, and main topic statements
