"This is badly written"
"It's so well written!"
What does this even mean? Is this the laziest way in the english language to sound intelligent while saying something is good or bad.

I know several languages and never have I read a critique with something being well written or not, except in english.
Alexander Nguyen
Use big words
Joseph Myers
You don't even have to use big words. Just get in more detail
God the writing is so garbage. Like wtf does that mean. You are saying storyline aren't great. But that is subjective. The quality of writing appearently isn't.
Like...sharp writing. That means nothing.
Juan Wright
that has nothing to do with english itself
being well written means readability
as in don't use too many big words and long on sentences and such
Jacob Carter
I mean critiqueing a movie or a videogame.
I use this as an example

How about the lingo being absolut bullshit?

The movie/book/game has a story which someone wrote. If that person wrote it well, it was well written, if not then it was poorly/badly written. Nicht so schwer
Isaiah Brooks
It's overused, certainly, but something being well-written is as legitimate a commentary as anything else. Harry Potter, for example, may have an interesting plot and compelling themes, but it is poorly written.
Chase Ward
I am sorry. I will make the lingo more tailored to your taste. Just wait while I redefine the whole culture for your personal ease of access since you demand so much from us.

>but something being well-written is as legitimate a commentary as anything else
No it's not. It's extremely primitive.
Well told, that I can live with. Since that also reuiqres some more contextualizing. Well written, never, ever, does.
You never hear it.
In German you almost certainly never heard it. Unless it was picked up by hip younger people who run blogs and shit
Levi Rivera
What's happened here is that you've made a preposterous claim, been refuted several times, and are now digging your heels in.
>it's extremely primitive
Yes, but your argument is that it's illegitimate or nonsensical, which it isn't. It doesn't have to be layered and nuanced for it to be legitimate.
Luis Myers
>primitive=illegitimate
The only primative thing here is you, Blöder
Charles White
I can't even begin to wrap my head around this idiotic thread. I hope you're high as a kite
Oliver Martin
The OP was quite poorly written.
John Watson
> well written means not using big words and long sentences
This nigga thinks dr seuss books are the height of western literature fucking kek
How's your functioning illiteracy working out for you, user?
Jackson Long
> esto esta mal escrito
> you never hear it
Stfu, worse germany
It is said in spanish and i spent all of high school hearing my teacher say it about my essays
Jackson Long
you are an idiot
Nathan Ward
Careful now, you don't wanna overstep the word limit, otherwise your sentence will be too hard to read, user
Also, don't use big complicated words like "idiot", you might get confused, use "dummy" instead
Kevin Cox
>layered and nuanced for it to be legitimate.
It's just pretty much anyone who writes like that is on a high horse either way.
Like that NeoGAF thread I posted. They all make me angry.
Yeah well Spanish is primitive like English
German is the language of detailed and sharp deductions.
Juan Scott
> german is the language blah blah blah
Nigga you don't even speak german, austrians speak nigger german like the swiss, that shit is a backwoods dialect AT BEST
Also
> es ist nicht richtig geschrieben
Or some such something
Jordan Adams
>Nigga you don't even speak german, austrians speak nigger german like the swiss, that shit is a backwoods dialect AT BEST
Obviously dialect austrian german is only used private casual day to day conversations. Never on TV, media etc.
Josiah Miller
that's not what it means
used in academic context it means writing on point and not meaninglessly showing off your ability to be overly complicated which happens all the time with a lot of people, just read some academic papers in the social sciences in the 70-80s and you'll know
Tyler Johnson
I know what you're talking about man, i was just busting your balls :^)
David Carter
It can mean a lot of things but generally it just mean it's balanced and eloquent.
