Having reached a C1+ level this year that occasionally leans towards C2, I see the ups and downs of both natural and academic spoken English! Although slang and colloquial speech does have its benefits that are irrefutable, speaking at an advanced level elevates the manner in which people are able to express themselves! For example, instead of curating long explanations that are often superfluous, English does encompass words that carry the weight of entire sentences! For instance, "Donald Trump tends to lie about everything, telling people all the things they wanna hear, and that's so shameful! Now, compare it to a more sophisticated version like, " Donald Trump's deceitful demeanor is utterly despicable!! Same narrative, but cut short! Another example,"Last week, some friends and I went hiking in the mountains, where we saw a bear walking around with its cubs! This encounter was so mesmerizing that words are not enough to explain how we all felt at that moment! In short," While hiking in the mountains with my friends last week, we encountered a bear walking around with its cubs, which was an ineffable experience!!!
