aussprechen
pronounce
Ein Laut oder ein Wort mit dem Mund deutlich hörbar machen.
The German word "aussprechen" is a verb that means "to pronounce" or "to articulate". It originates from the combination of the prefix "aus-" (out) and "sprechen" (to speak). "Aussprechen" often includes the connotation of speaking something thoroughly and completely, delivering a spoken expression openly or officially.
Similar words in German with a related but not identical meaning include "sagen" (to say), "erklären" (to explain), and "mitteilen" (to communicate). The notable difference is that "aussprechen" emphasizes the act of officially or explicitly voicing thoughts, while "sagen" is more general for saying, "erklären" focuses more on giving explanations, and "mitteilen" is specific to relaying information or messages.
