1
remove paper or other covering
To take paper, plastic, or another cover off something that is wrapped.
Pola penggunaan:
to unwrap [something]
Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes use *open* instead of *unwrap* for gifts or things covered in paper or plastic. *Open* is correct for boxes, doors, or containers, but *unwrap* is more precise when you remove paper or other wrapping from an object.
Sinonim
unpack (Focuses on removing things from bags, boxes, or suitcases, not just taking off wrapping.)
|
open (More general; can mean to move a lid, door, or container, not specifically to remove wrapping.)
Antonim

reveal or explain something hidden
To slowly show or explain something that was hidden or not clear before.
Pola penggunaan:
to unwrap [an idea / a story / a mystery]
Kesalahan umum:
Learners may think *unwrap* is only physical. In modern English it is sometimes used with abstract things like *mystery*, *story*, or *idea*, especially in media and marketing language. In more formal writing, *explain* or *reveal* may sound more natural.
Sinonim
uncover (Stresses finding or showing something that was hidden, often with a bit more seriousness or drama.)
|
reveal (More general; commonly used for showing information for the first time, not necessarily step by step.)
Antonim
conceal (Means to hide something or keep it secret so it cannot be seen or understood.)
|
obscure (Means to make something less clear or harder to understand, the opposite of making it clear.)

extract a contained value in computing
In computer programming, to take a value out of a special object that is holding it, so you can use that value directly.
Pola penggunaan:
to unwrap [a value / a result] from [a container / an object]
Kesalahan umum:
Learners may confuse the everyday meaning of *unwrap* with its specialized programming use. In code, *unwrap* usually has nothing to do with paper or physical wrapping; it refers to taking a value out of a special type or structure. It also often implies risk (for example, unwrapping a null or empty value can cause an error).
Sinonim
extract (More general technical term; does not specifically suggest a wrapper or container type in code.)
|
dereference (Specific to pointer-like structures; similar idea of getting the underlying value but used in different programming contexts.)
Antonim
wrap (In programming, to put a value inside a container type or object, the opposite of taking it out.)
|
encapsulate (Means to place data and behavior inside an object or structure, conceptually the reverse of unwrapping it.)
