×He explained with a good clarity.
✓He explained with great clarity.
The word 'clarity' is an uncountable noun, so we do not use the indefinite article 'a' before it. We use adjectives like 'great', 'remarkable', or 'perfect' to describe its degree.
×I need more clarities about the plan.
✓I need more clarity about the plan.
'Clarity' is an uncountable noun and does not have a plural form. We do not add '-s' to it.
×The clarity of water in the lake is very clear.
✓The water in the lake is very clear.
This is redundant. 'Clarity' already means 'the quality of being clear'. It is better to simply say 'The water is clear' or 'The lake has great water clarity'.
×She speaks with a clarity voice.
✓She speaks with clarity. / She has a clear voice.
'Clarity' is a noun and cannot be used as an adjective to modify another noun like 'voice'. Use the adjective 'clear' instead, or restructure the sentence to use 'clarity' as the object of the preposition.
×For more clarity, please read the instructions again.
✓To gain more clarity, please read the instructions again.
While 'for more clarity' is sometimes used, it is more idiomatic and precise to use verbs like 'gain', 'achieve', 'bring', or 'provide' with 'clarity'.
