making known

Announcing to others

Making known is the act of revealing, disclosing, or bringing something to others' attention.

The phrase emphasizes the transition from hidden or private to public awareness: She delayed making known her decision until after the meeting.

It often implies deliberate communication rather than accidental discovery.
