Concept in Definition ABC

The term ambiguous is a qualifying adjective that is used to indicate that something, a situation, or someone, a person or animal, is not entirely understandable in their behavior or actions, just as a situation may not be entirely clear or specific about something. The ambiguity, then, it is a characteristic that can be applied to circumstances as well as to people or active beings.

When we speak of ambiguity, that something or someone is ambiguous, we are saying that that person or Circumstance does not show us its true characteristics but hides them or does not leave them in Sure. This can be a specially made decision (such as when a person is clearly ambiguous at certain times depending on their interest and audience) or fortuitous (such as when a situation is difficult to understand or understand in your essence). If applied to people, ambiguity usually has a hint of negativity since it implies that the individual in question is not entirely honest or sincere but hides its true being under various facets, expressions or forms from think.

However, the notion of ambiguity or that something or someone is ambiguous can also be interesting or positive if it is understood as something that is not determinative and structured if not that it can vary over time or that it can have different types of interpretation. Here, the notion of ambiguous from a positive point of view, is more related to questions such as forms of expression that allow each observer or reader to read or admire and interpret it according to his or her preferences senses. This is seen particularly in works of art such as sculpture, the painting wave literature since each specific work can hide numerous meanings.
