Learn English – a word/phrase for something that is very obvious

phrase-requestword-request

What do we call it when something is so obvious (about someone) that there is no point in stating it? Is there a phrase or an idiom?

For example:

It is very obvious that he is a drug addict.

Best Answer

An example of an idiom for "obvious" would be "as clear as day":

It's as clear as day that's he's a drug addict.

You can even use words like "clearly" at the beginning of the sentence to emphasise the phrase you're talking about:

Clearly, he's a drug addict.

It captures the same meaning as "It's very obvious that...", which is what you're looking for, it also adds a layer of emotion to the sentence as well.
