Meaning
In a manner that is easy to understand or see.
Cultural Background
In the capital's business culture, being 'vazeh' is increasingly valued over traditional 'Ta'arof' to save time. Dari speakers also use 'vazeh', but might prefer 'roshan' or 'sareeh' in similar formal contexts. In Tajik, which uses Cyrillic, the word is written as 'возеҳ' and is used in formal state media. Second-generation Iranians often use 'vazeh' as a loan-translation for 'clearly' when they lack more specific vocabulary.
The Ezafe Link
Always remember the 'e' sound after 'tor'. It's the glue that holds the phrase together.
Don't Overuse
Using it in every sentence makes you sound like a robot. Mix it up with 'roshan' or 'malum'.

Frequently Asked Questions
4 questionsYes, as an adjective (e.g., 'This is clear'). But as an adverb ('He spoke clearly'), 'be tor-e vazeh' is better.
Rarely. In texts, people usually use 'vazeh' or 'malume'.
The opposite is 'be tor-e namoshakhas' (vaguely) or 'mubham' (ambiguous).
Not usually, but if said with a harsh tone, it can sound like you are losing patience.
