"why can't dumb people talk ?"?
826675
There are a lot of theories as to what causes someone to be "dumb" or unable to speak. In some cases there are physical problems with the vocal chords, (ie they are malformed or underdeveloped), in some cases there are other physical abnormalities that cause a person to be unable to make certain or all sounds.\n\nIn other cases, it is a matter of problems with the portions of the brain that control speech. Whether through malformation or though damage these parts of the brain are unable to function properly and therefore the person is unable to make the connection between thought and speech in the brain (in many of these cases there are no other problems it just seems like a short circuit). \n\nStill there are others who cannot speak because they cannot hear. Many deaf people who have been deaf since birth are unable to reproduce speech because they have never heard it and most of our ability to speak is learned through mimicking.\n\nThere are no simple answers and there are some cases that are unexplained (ie.. psychosomatic cases where there may be no physical problem but a psychological one that inhibits the ability to speak).\n\nI hope that answers your question.

No, you can't even talk coherently.

Why can't you spell simple words like 'stupid' correctly?\n  \nAnd why do some people (from the Ivy-covered walls of college profs to the ordinary man in the street) feel that criticizing others makes them somehow better than others who they aren't worthy to kiss the butts of? \n\nI think perhaps people are NOT perfect.  \n\nAMEN!!!!

Ohh....  So many things annoy that pants off me.  Lets see... When people say "mines is"- its so redundant.  Or people that seem to be only able to talk while swearing and are limited to two topics- drugs and sex (involving them).  When people don't speak clearly or loud enough for you to hear them...when people stop right in front of a door....When people are mean just 'cause you know something, or when they're asking everyone in sight something but totally ignoring you as you answer...Oh so many things.  When you're in a jammed parking lot behind someone who has to have that spot and the people who are getting out of it are taking FOREVER!!  Stuff like that.

Its because we're dumb, and we're dumb because we don't understand crazy people. ^.^  Mostly, its better to not try and understand them.  Like why they say no when they really mean yes, or why they ask stupid questions that they don't want answered in the first place.  Just go with the flow!

Because you don't have to put any thought into answering stupid questions or coming up with stupid answers.\nAlso stupid questions don't usually call for an opinion that you can back up with a coherent argument.\nStupid questions also tend to be band wagon questions so if you don't know the answer just repeat what the person ahead of you said.\nSociety, in what is a very scary development, has become accepting of answers that are wrong and/or stupid.  I don't believe you should tell someone they are unintelligent, but when they are being stupid you need to tell them.\nThe ignorant loudmouths have also developed, and society has let them, the attitude that they will just keep repeating themselves as loudly as possible no matter what you say and how wrong they are until the person with the intelligent answer just gives in because they have better things to do then argue with an idiot.\nAnd lastly answers to stupid questions are mostly short and don't require the ability to type and use halfway decent English and spelling.

get a sign language to braille translator.\nTake the mother to see the corpse.\nJust say it, dumb has two meaning, one being stupid and one being unable to talk, you must've got the first meaning

Because they cannot communicate using language.  This is because they are ignorant.  Reading books helps.

It's not their fault if they're deaf.Every person is born as they are! It's just foolish and Evil to consider people dumb because of how they're born.We don't get choices when we're born.Right?These individuals inspite of having a handicap still try to succeed,And that is amazing.If these people try to live a better life by finding ways and means and try to escape from the bondages of Handicap ,It is not only Great but also means they are indeed smart .They speak through their mind and soul instead of their mouth that's the only difference .Anyone who hates them is as bad as the Nazis!

This is so, well, mean.  A mentally retarded person, who is blind and deaf would most likely be in a home of some sort.  There would be ways of communication.  \n\nAnd it is most likely that this person is not mentally retarded, but is called "dumb" because of the lack of formal education that is suited to his needs.  There is a special form of sign language that is used for people who are both deaf and blind.

It's lag.\n\nThere are millions of people chatting.  Sometimes it lags...other times you sound like a chipmunch.

OH no.....Please no....How amazing are you!  You have all of that HARD WORK as your FRAME OF REFERENCE.  \n\nNothing limits your conversations, ideas, advice except the people YOU choose to hang with who don't ACCEPT your conversations, ideas, and advice.  I can't find one reason for someone to feel dumb BECAUSE they aren't "TALKING SMART".....What is "excercising rhetoric" as you like to call it.\n\nWe all know what we are capable of....and obviously YOU DO...or you wouldn't have asked this question.  I have to admit the reason this question envoked such a powerful response from me is that I have felt I have let my intellectual integrity lag a bit in the last few years..and I did it all (school wise anyway).  \n\nBUT......I have never....not once let anyone....make me feel old, ignorant, limited, unimportant....and thats what I get from you.  You don't have to talk to amazing people to be amazing....just shine when you can.
