Linguistic Intelligence :: What It Is

Also known as “word smart”, linguistic learners display facilities with words and languages. They are typically good at reading, writing, telling stories and memorizing words along with dates. They tend to learn best by reading, taking notes, listening to lectures, and discussion and debate.

Linguistic kids enjoy using a varied vocabulary and appreciate puns, riddles and word games.  If a child picks up new languages easily, there’s a very good chance they’ve got strong linguistic “mind muscles”.
