Serious What's The Difference Between Smart And Clever?

[tyudm]

Any intelligent and wise one care to explain in layman term?

 

[greedy and cunning]

no amount of study can make a person intelligent or wise.
it only increases his knowledge
don't expect scholars to run a country well.

Smart is me, work for PAP. Clever is PAP, give a drumstick take back whole chicken. Not smart not clever people, is what makes this all work.

if we had a parliament with 3 or 4 political parties and 40 or 70 opposition seats like UK parliament,then we wouldnt have to look at ur lanjiao face all the time u nabei cheebye!!!!

 

[Narong Wongwan]

Smart indicates acquired knowledge ie we use the terms "street smart" and "book smart", so smart has more to do with experience...

Clever is something you were born with, like the ability to solve problems fast.

So clever is natural talent while smart is taught/learned.

先天 VS 后天

Kong Hee, Ng Boon Gay, Professor Tey Tsun Hang are all intelligent people but not smart enough when it comes to cheating.

LKY and son are the experts.

Scroobal is smart…..JW5 is clever (well, at least he thinks he is)

 

[Dark Knight]

In my opinion.

A clever person may not be smart.
Example such as those who can flair in academy.

A smart person may not be clever.
Example such as those who make it as politicians

Those who are both clever and smart is rare.
Example such as those who can start up a business from scratch

People like George Quek (Breadtalk) whose cash register rings to a tune of $600m annually?

dun be stoopid to fall for such compliment, always remember that even if you think that you are smart, there is always a higher mountain. stay humble always...

if so, 70% is smart, while the pappies are clever

I only know what's smut and cleavage...

 

[jw5]

if so, 70% is smart, while the pappies are clever

Only some of the 70% are smart. The others are impressionable and easily manipulated.

 

[Wunderfool]

I didn't know that there is a difference, but there are many smart alecs and clever fools think that there is.

 

[tanwahtiu]

When u are cheated next time u are smarter not to be cheated again.
When u can cheat you are clever than a smart person.

 

[Wunderfool]

At the end of day, it 's all semantics. It doesn't matter if smart = clever or smart not equal clever. If you are smart or clever, it makes no difference how you are called.
