How to use "Enlightenment" in context?
The term "enlightenment" is derived from the Middle English enlerehnen, from Old English and West Saxon envoylein, meaning "to clear up, lighten, make apparent," from envoyan "to show, make evident," from PIE *iem- "to make visible, disclose" (cf. Sanskrit dadhyati "discloses, makes known"), from root *dheu- "to show" (cf. Lithuanian šviesas "light, daylight").
The philosophical concept of enlightenment is the arrival of knowledge, understanding, and liberation from the confines of ignorance.
