[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“You’re so articulate” as if they were surprised I’m not a total idiot[/quote] This doesn’t sound like a back handed compliment to me. This is just a compliment.[/quote] It's a microaggression.[/quote] The fact that it has devolved to this makes me sad. The definition is: having or showing the ability to speak fluently and coherently. Not everyone is a good public speaker. Some people are amazingly articulate under pressure and fantastic public speakers. This is the way I used to think of the word "articulate" and the way I would use it; to complement someone who I thought was a particularly good public speaker. Someone who has the ability to convey ideas is a clear manner. Can't use it any more. People automatically assume bad intentions.[/quote]
