Make explicit (5,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spell out

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">make explicit</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(synonyms)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for spell out that I've seen before include "Temporary release from prison" , "writing letters?" , "Give precise details" , "Explain in detail" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal and The Mirror.
