If you claim that a person is unique, then can you claim that the person is interesting?

Question

Unique: having no like or equal.

Interesting: holding the attention or curiosity

Answer 1

no...what if this person is not interesting....can be unique..but thats it...interesting is totally different...how interesting can a creepy person be? He/she may be the only one that sits under a tree and talks to a tree...thats unique right? but is this person interesting? heck, i wouldnt even go near this person..i mean..if he or she was interesting, then why dont you say interesting instead of unique? Unless if this person was both, then you can say that this person is unique and interesting....

Answer 2

"Interesting" is one of the words that can go with "unique." But it is not the only word. For example, someone's uniqueness can be so repelling that he is "horrifing" (e.g., "Frankenstein was a monster who was so physically unique that he was horrifying" — to say he is "intesting" would be to say someting that would be true, but would be an understatement, or rhetorically, a dead fall). Or you could ask a question that questions whether Hitler was unique and also interesting, but interesting would fall short of truly expressing feelings about his uniqueness. For someone with ordinary moral sensitivities, Hitler was unique as a mass murderer; for someone who is bound up in his ideological beliefs, Hitler was unquely the crusader for white Aryan racialism. So interesting may go with uniqueness, but may not be the best, most precise, most evocative word to use if you want to go beyond saying simply that someone is unique in an unspecified way.

Answer 3

Everyone is unique - However that doesn't make them all interesting. At least to me in my own unique little way.

Answer 4

Not always, you can have a person that is unique, but perhaps not interesting for you.

Answer 5

Anyone can call themselves unique, it can mean intresting , it can be mean dumb, can mean anything, end of the day only ppl u can call unique are ppl who make a difference, I..Einstein, Nelson Mendela, Malcom X, people who invent things, people who generally do and make things which facinates us.

Answer 6

unique...i hate that word..
to me, unique means trying to get attention in a ''different way''
but i dont pay any attention to whom wants attention.

Answer 7

The word ''Unique'' can be used for describing people who always tell jokes and are very optimistic.but ''interesting'' can be used for describing people whose potential abilities are veiled and we find them ''interesting''

I hope u will understand what i said lol

Answer 8

yep.
things that are different hold our attention because there is nothing like it before so we want to see what its about.

Answer 9

Not necessarily. He or she can be unique in their dullness.

Answer 10

Someone who is different holds no interest for you? Bahh, bahhh!
