No, I am educating you. Sentences are not defined. To suggest otherwise belies a deep failure to understand the concept of definitions.

Are you saying it isn't possible to explain a sentence? Again, you don't look at other definitions of a word, so you mess up.

You seem confused. Insults can be directed at any person, regardless of whatever skills they may possess.
In any case, this kind of so-called realisation wouldn't have any relation to a person's ability to communicate in a language. As for being a better linguist than me? Laughable. Please report to this URL.

The only thing laughable here is your argument skills. I meant an insult based on skills, not overal;l insults. You are making fun of my ability to use the english langauge, when obviously i comprehend and use it just fine. Perhaps I am not better than you at it, but if you think an insult holds any validity when targeted at someone that obviously doesn't have that feature you shouldn't even be in this argument at all, since it's over an insult.

Hardly. That is the exact definition I would need for the insult to make sense. Are you sure you
read the definition i posted??

This isn't even relevant until you show that our disagreement stems from conflicting definitions.

Ah pulling off a Lance. Our definitions are conflicting because you claim mine doesn't exist, therefore that makes it totally relevant.
