How much do you value your voice?
Здравствуйте, it’s KholatKhult, here to bore you.
In some cultures speech is expected to stay modest and limited, while in others, colorful and exaggerated vocalization is praised. I love reading flowery language in literature.
I think of how Shakespeare plays take a dozen minutes for someone to explain something that could easily be said bluntly. Or how the “rednecks” in American movies have crazy idioms and colorful story telling.
Personally, when it came to speaking, I was taught that less was more. Do not speak unless spoken to. Only use your voice to ask or answer a question. Which is ironic because I run my mouth a lot on here.
So I’m curious, how important is your voice worth to you? Do you consider having a wide vocabulary important in your life? Does speech censorship bother you more than others? Is your local dialect and vocabulary (accent/slang) important to you?
