Explanator

/ɛkˈsplænətər/ noun

Definition

One who explains; a person who makes something clear or understandable to others.

Etymology

From Latin explanator (ex- 'out' + planare 'to flatten' + -or agent suffix). A more formal cousin of 'explainer.'

Kelly Says

While 'explainer' is modern and casual, 'explanator' sounds academic and authoritative—like a medieval scholar carefully flattening out the wrinkles of ignorance.
