clarifying proposal

'clarifying proposal' or 'defining resolution' or 'defining proposal' is a summary that is also used to reveal an underlying problem to an obfuscating author such as a conman without giving away awareness (by the victim) of the conman's scam.
I am an agent with a buyer who wishes to buy your property but we wish to carry out due diligence first so we offer a deposit whilst conveyancers are engaged. The con is that the agent takes a commission from the conveyancer then the purchase falls through. The seller does not wish to reveal their suspicion of the con so offers a 'clarifying proposal' being: instead of a deposit let the buyer pay all the seller's conveyancer fees.

clarifing

A form of clarifying, where the clarification is originally clear, yet out of spite, a response is given of bitter origins. This is also due to the lack of actual knowledge of knowing how to actually spell 'clarifying'.

clarifly

Verb: To elucidate while dressed in stylish attire
Silky Johnson called the slave owner a honky which confused the slaves. He felt he must clarifly by saying, "Honky is a racial epithet used for white people. It was made popular by George Jefferson in the 1970's. You see he and his wife Weezy had a dry cleaning business so they moved on up to the east side, to a deluxe apartment in the sky. They finally got a piece of the pie. Convoluted story I'll admit. But the point is this, that in the future, all black people will be free!".
