Fossil · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:32

What do the OcUK people think?

I think you... smell of poo.

Monkeynut · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:34

What do YOU think, OP?

D D Danneh · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:34

Just like... you too.

AGD · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:36

Knowledge is a noun so how can it be a skill? :confused:

G-MAN2004 · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:37

OP, what you shown me the other night, was most certainly a skill. Not sure about knowledge though.

Eh?

If you have to ask, you dont have the skill.

I'm confuzzled

Skill? No. Asset? Yes.

No

But the ability to retain knowledge is.

I was asked this Q by my teacher in class.. 'customer service skills' unit in BTEC Travel and Tourism.

So bibalasvegas, you're saying the Q is worded wrong?

Nix · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:42

'skill' really needs to be defined. As the question stands Fossil, it doesn't really make a great deal of sense unless you wanted to play on semantic ambiguity.

Cosimo · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:45

It’s acquired.

Makhaira · 4 Oct 2009 at 22:47

A skill refers to an ability or aptitude. Since knowledge is effectively an object (if a somewhat metaphysical one), it can't BE a skill.

Please rephrase your question in the form of a question.

Why, don't you understand English.

DampCat · 4 Oct 2009 at 23:01

It's an ability!

Fossil · 4 Oct 2009 at 23:05

Thanks for the replies, the 'question' has been answered.
