Do you consider yourself eloquent when you speak?

Yes I do. I've always had good diction and spoken well. I'm always polite and only swear when I'm angry or frustrated. As an introvert, I'm better at the written word than spoken and have always excelled at writing. I love journalling and get praised by people who read it. I'm better at expressing myself by writing down how I feel.

yes, i do have the ability to elaborate using $50 words at will

that's being said, when i get home from work at night, i unplug and revert back to peasant jeans with a mouthful of urban expressions

Quote from alexS

that $50 words...that's peak right there. Use that on your next TED talk

absolutely! The no nonsense approach to tasks at hand my Lord!

Sometimes I'm not that good at explaining stuff while writing in English. Sometimes it is because of the fact that it isn't my first language.

I try to use correct grammar and spelling, when I write. As if I'm writing a school assignment or something similar.

I try not to curse, even though that does happen. (I feel like I curse more on text than I do orally)

When I'm speaking in Faroese, which is my native language, I sometimes try to speak as "Faroese" as possible. (meaning not using Danish or English words when I speak it) But it depends on, who I'm talking to.

Also, when I'm writing in Faroese, I try to write it as Faroese as possible. (I might seem a bit formal while writing it)

Yes, I have to be due to my profession and I end up applying in my personal life.

We have too much influence over other people, because they trust us. One thing I say wrong could change someone's route in life. Mind you that most of the time I work with autistic kids and teenagers, so I have to be responsible for what I say to their parents.

If you ask me If I express myself well in english then Its another thing...

1000% not

I talk very broken up, kind or erratic and lots of pausing to collect my thoughts, which makes people interrupt me a lot as they think I'm finished talking, I definitely wouldn't describe my way of speaking as eloquent.

Plus I often talk way too quiet without meaning to.

(English is my first and only language)

not really

I often don't write full paragraphs but rather just go for bullet point style writing

just like what I'm doing right now

When I write, yeah, I make sure that my spelling, grammar, and punctuation are correct and that what I'm writing makes sense. For some reason, I don't care as much when I'm just sending texts though. But when making posts here, yeah.

When I'm speaking, ehhh. I don't think I pay attention to it but I think sometimes it just comes naturally.

I think so, yes. If I really try, that is. Sometimes I’ll speak with maximum efficiency other times I’ll use improper English. It just depends. The writing aspect though, poetry and all that, I’m always eloquent.

I've always been told I do within work settings and such. I tend to write how I speak so there isn't much difference between them other than topic focused language depending on what it is I'm writing.

At home I'm more switched off unless I'm required to explain something.
