Are you the way you write?

Question

It is hard to know people just by the way they write. For some (like myself) English is not their first language, others could be very young or having less writing skills, still others perhaps are Academics and are more familiar with the written word.

Nevertheless, how much do you think the way you write projects your personality and why?

Answer 1

It depends for me, on who I am writing to. I never used to be this way, but now I find that when I am writing to someone I feel very comfortable with, I will write in the same manner that I would have a face to face or telephone conversation. Other times, I keep it professional and try as best as I can to stick to the grammatical rules. Business writing is the same deal, I follow the rules. That's my personality, I keep it real, but different situations call for different kinds of real. You know what I'm sayin', G?

Answer 2

This is something that really gets to me. I am exactly the way I write and I care very much what people think of me by my communication skills. I think that it says a lot about a person if their writing, spelling, etc is sloppy and careless. I can't believe the language and usage that I see on here. I know all about "computer lingo" and so forth, but it makes people appear SO stupid. Do they actually speak this way in public? If any of my children spoke that way or wrote so poorly, I'd be horribly embarrassed for them. Your grammar and spelling does say a lot about you, as does your writing, verbiage, word usage, etc.

I am the way I write - serious and professional. I care deeply how I am perceived and I do not understand how some of these people expect to get ahead in the world when they write and (apparently) speak like they have had no education or upbringing. Do they really think that anyone would hire such an illiterate?

Oh well, thank you for allowing me a rant for today!

Answer 3

The way you write may or may not project your personality. I think it probably does. If you take the content and the style of writing, you can develop some ideas about a person (that may or may not be correct). However writing is the way people will think of you, especially here on the net.

If your first language is not English, you have an excellent command of the language. Therefore, I think you are intelligent, well organized, inquisitive, think clearly and express yourself well and you are probably not reared in the USA. Have a good day.

Answer 4

pay attention to a crap load of music. through fact the guitar is obviously very simular to a piano, i come across listening to many classical products, speradically places something into my head. another element, I normally initiate out taking part in a riff extremely sluggish. i'm speaking like 15 to twenty BPM. this supplies me an actual sense for what i'm taking part in from the initiating, with the flexibility to get rid of lost notes, or maybe an entire scale. Then whilst escalading the pace greater issues come to mild. So in my imprecise technique the start to a riff would desire to be an identical or entire oposite from the unique whilst 20 BPM will become 2 hundred BPM

Answer 5

How I write is better an example of how I think than how I am in person. I tend to be a bit more reserved and quiet. Shy I suppose.

For me the written word is easier to express my thoughts with less distractions than in a face to face conversation.

Answer 6

It depends on what form of writing one is into.It can be entirely personal or for others to read.This distinction is important as in today's world we tend to create our image different from what we actually are.The reason's for this are many but the end result is that we are not even honest with ourselves and this filters down to our writing too.So writings are not probably true mirror of individuals personality but some traits of persons character can surely be judged.And my personal experience suggests that if a person is writing in language s/he is not comfortable with then it is a better projector of personality as the person is too busy trying to form words and has no time for sugarcoating the personality :)

Answer 7

The way you write shows your level of education at the moment, but what you write shows your capability of understanding, you're ability to express yourself and a forcast of what your able to learn. Ignorant people perceive a language barrier as stupidity, but being able to express yourself in a language that you're learning is a process. Continue to practice, and study the English language and you will do fine.

Answer 8

Yes, when you write, it will show your true self, "Why' because in a conversation. you may say, something that you never meant to say or sound the way it did, or you may think later and say, 'wow' I should never had said that.'

Which in writing, you can always take your time and say what you want. or even go back and change what, you feel is not right. so in turn you can put more thought, to what you are trying to say. and how you say it.

Also' writing will, help you think. have you ever felt sad, and just sat down, to start writing down your thoughts? in this way, writing helps you to cope with many things. even help make you feel better, about something, that has been bothering you. the reason, it helps you to think. maybe even to get ideas, about something you would like to know more about.

But to project your personality? maybe a little, but not really. because many thoughts you will never write, for others to read. in that way you will never know their true self, not unless you met them, in that way, with speech you tend to say things you would not normally write. to really know a persons true self and actions. and even then. it may take time, to get to know them.

Answer 9

Answer 10

the wat you write is good if you know how to project yourself in your own vocabulary. the more practice you have with writing, the better someone will be able to prject themselves.
