Language, no matter how skilled the writer, thinker or speaker may be, is not refined enough to enable the putting into words of everything. At best, it only touches on many ideas, feelings and emotions. This is why disciplines like the fine arts are important. Artistic talent can't be measured by IQ, or any other, tests. This is not to say that language skills are unnecessary. Good writing is an art, as well as a means of communication.
Breukelen advocaat Reviewed by Breukelen advocaat on . Intelligence...judged by grammar and vocabulary? Is it wrong to judge an individual's overall intelligence based primarily on their grammar and vocabulary? I mean, isn't that the basic indicator?? I know it's only a part of overall knowledge, but to me for some reason it really seems to say a lot depending on how well someone can spell and speak.. thoughts, anyone?:stoned: Rating: 5
