I'd like to see English speakers act in another language, and see how they do. I remember even "The Greats" like Laurence Olivier attempt a Dutch accent (in Dracula), and fail miserably. That accent was hilarious, you could hardly make out the words.
Btw, very often people good at languages are bad at science, and vice versa. Luckily, I'm a genious at both. Hey, maybe I should take up acting?.

My favourite actress is Mira Sorvino.
Apart from acting, she's also great at languages, including fluent Mandarin.
That was, she was able to converse with her co-star Chow Yun Fat in the Replacement Killers and help him on set.

Just from my own personal experience (and I realize I am making a generalization), most people that I know who I think would score in the genius category on an IQ test tend to lack social skills and common sense."The farther we go, the more the ultimate explanation recedes from us, and all we have left is faith."

When you think about it, most genius level people tend to act not much different then a computer ...
It's almost like people have to give up something to get something else.
I knew a dude once who was crazy smart ... like rocket scientist smart ... but for all his smarts, he couldn't even grasp the concept of "taking a hint".
You could slyly insult the guy right to his face and he'd never know you were doing it.Comment

Hey....!
>It's almost like people have to give up something to get something else.
In a lot of cases that's true 'cos being a genius requires a lot of work. Even if you're a non-specialized intelligent person there's usually a lot of reading, studying and generally paying attention involved.
>but for all his smarts, he couldn't even grasp the concept of "taking a hint".
HAW! I know a lot of stupid people like that, too. Social interaction requires a lot of study, practice, etc. Which is why some folks who gain overall knowledge or specialized skills often have a lack of social efficacy: they spent the time others use interacting to learn something else.
>most people that I know who I think would score in the genius category on an IQ test tend to lack social skills and common sense.
I think most PEOPLE lack social skills and common sense, but we expect more from smart folks so it's more noticeable.
>Luckily, I'm a genious at both.
....er.... You misspelled “genius.”
