can you go more into that , I know a little bit about polygots , but I can't read.

so I want to know what you mean by polygot of literature.

>>24949602
That may be, but the proof of the pudding is in the eating; it seems best to judge their writings by the writing itself rather than how fluent or not they were in the language.

>>24949650
What the fuck did you just say?

>>24949654
Just what I said? If their writings in different languages were good and well done, who cares whether they spoke the language fluently in conversation? The writing stands or falls on its own merits.

>>24949662
Nigga how are you going to write a good book in a language you’re not fluent in?

>>24949642
joyce and tolkien.

>>24949662
but you can learn enough grammar and use a dictionary.

Writing is not the same as being able to talk to others fluidly in a language.

>>24949670
Because you've read a lot in it and you have a grasp of it in writing but not conversational fluency?
>>24949676
Yeah, pretty much. But as I said, if the writing is good, who cares?

>>24949672
well then , I assume they do speak it , but they sound a little bit like garbage , they put an ungodly amount of time into them.

and if you change the topic to much they break.

but they do speak them.

like a lot of legit polygots , insatid of the fake ones.
god bless autism.

>>24949683
as far as I know , trying to edge languages is the meta for the averge legit polygot that and autism.

polygot comunity actually seem closer to comunities like tarot , with a middle class of people , almost being fakers , a big amount of fakers , and a mythical race of people who are conpetnent and give the comunity its reputation.

my argument is that I'm fluent in english because of spending 15 years on 4chan talking daily, and before that I spend 3 years studying it, and 4 years more using the english internet.

Claiming that you can reach fluency is not possible for more than 3-4 languages.

Name 1 good book written by someone who didn’t speak the language fluently.

thats a resonable argument , I kind of agree in the context of the normal paradime , but I do think thier is problably an underexplored world of language , the mytical true polygot, that being said , for me to say any Autor is one of those would be silly.

most polygots agree with you preposition at least , or the intent anyway.

what they do is just reach the minimun for fluency aggressively , is not entirely the same as learning english , since that is the verry important globohomo lanaguage.

imaging talking with someone who only knows 30% greek , but they are very clever in using that 30% , thats how it goes for them.

I think they could be larpers , their is a reason I compared polyglots to tarot.

although , if I had to guess , I would assume they are the type of larper who is semi decent at one part of the language (that being writing) and just over inflates their abilities a ton.

I wonder why isn't the limitacion of lanaguge shelldom talked about in philosophy though, you could trough abstraction and a a theory of everything , teach one man all the knowlege we have , but this constant reality of language goes against that.

Bunch of Chinese poetry written by Japanese people who could read and write Chinese but not speak it. Much of it's not great, but the best is pretty damn good.

>>24949602
it's not hard to learn a language if you already know some of it and you spend your time reading books or watching film instead of doomscrolling 4chins endlessly です

>>24949716
That's why I have a rule that I don't use the Internet in my native language on Mondays and Fridays, to force me to practice other languages.
