How do you easily express in writing or when talking? Of course in your native language, because there are not many of English as mother tongue. I think about me so that I can express same in written and spoken often to me is better to express myself in talking. What about you?

I am told that I better express myself in the written word, but I also have been told that I am a good speaker. My preference is for writing, as I am more comfortable with this method than I am with speaking. There are times when speaking is the best way to communicate, especially when I am communicating with my dogs, as they can't read.

I know there are times when I think my dogs might like to read. They seem very smart sometimes.

Hi, icesmile. I am much of a good writer than I am a speaker. I can't get up in front of large crowds. I have stage fright. I am very nervous when talking in front of others. I feel comfortable writing than I do with speaking in front of people. I notice this quality about myself.

I manage to write and speak passable English. But I struggle in most other languages.

I'm a much better writer, but I can speak pretty well if I'm in a situation where I feel comfortable.

Both of them, but when to start a discussion I get little bit weak.Cause my ability was to give a comment, whether to kill or just to give advice.To kill the argue.

I think I can write better than I speak, although I am not a bad speaker, but I have the tendency to be able to say what I really want in writing than in speaking. I know the value of being a good speaker. It benefits a person more if he or she can speak her thoughts efficiently. One can let himself be heard by a lot of people at the same time--something that writing could not do.

I think I have a 50-50 chance of excelling in both writing and talking. But I can think faster than constructing good readable piece of work. I may have the ideas but stringing words together will take me ages to finalize.
