On the same page as dubious is another powerful word, dunderhead.
Dunderhead comes from a Scottish dialect and means a stupid person. It is unequivocal and unambiguous, not dubious at all, perfectly clear. What's the word for that? Perspicuous?
Yes! I like it.
Perspicuous means having clarity of expression or style; lucid. From Latin.
So a dunderhead would rarely be perspicuous, though the meaning of the word is always crystal clear.
