Surely when one can use a wider band of vocabulary it is easier for one
express their exact meaning? Where a person using freshman english will be
using the same words to describe many different circumstances, here an
educated person will have a word for every eventuality, a word that is the
proper essence of what one means? not a half word or general word...
Seems to me you have things the wrong way round Alan.....if you progressed
with study further youd be able express yourself far more consisely and to a
wider audience...and be able to change your wording, approach and delivery
when talking to people from every walk of life....
I normally speak casual, real casual.....but there is a certain charm to
have a fully fledged handle on the english language and being able to
express oneself with more than a 10,000word vocabulary where you use the
same words over and over....
Certainly here in England you walk into a job interview (example customer
facing role, sales etc) talking like a texan hillbilly youll be laughed out
the door, therefor where I come from its important to be able to, when
needed, speak with some gusto....
