not clearly seen, heard, or known

Not clear or easy to see, hear, or remember; hard to notice in a sharp way.

نمط الاستخدام: [something] is indistinct / indistinct [sound/shape/memory]
خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes confuse "indistinct" with "instinct" because they look similar. "Indistinct" means not clear, but "instinct" is a natural feeling or reaction. Another confusion is with "indistinguishable": "indistinct" means hard to see or hear clearly, while "indistinguishable" means two things look or sound so similar that you cannot tell them apart.
المرادفات
unclear (Very general; can refer to ideas, explanations, or physical things, often simpler and more common than "indistinct".) | faint (Emphasizes that a sound, image, or memory is weak or barely noticeable, not just lacking sharpness.) | blurred (Most often used for vision or images that lack sharp lines; more visual than "indistinct".)
الأضداد
clear (Describes something that is easy to see, hear, or understand, with no difficulty in perception.)

not clearly separated or differentiated

Not clearly different or separate from another thing; the line between them is not sharp.

نمط الاستخدام: [boundary/difference] is indistinct / indistinct boundary between [A] and [B]
خطأ شائع:
Learners may use only "not clear" or "not different" and miss the idea of a weak or blurred line between two things. Also, they may say "indistinct of" instead of the correct patterns "indistinct from" or "an indistinct line between A and B".
المرادفات
blurred (Stresses that the line or difference between things is not sharp, often used metaphorically for categories or roles.) | vague (Suggests that the separation or difference is not clearly defined or explained in detail.)
الأضداد
distinct (Emphasizes that things are clearly separate or different from each other.)
