Classical Chinese is a very succinct and potent language.

[edit source]

it's succinct for sure, but what exactly makes it "potent"?. I would argue it is less potent than for instance German because you can use the German language in such a way that any ambiguity is reduced to such a level that precision is reached to make it suitable for scientific purpose, which would really be true potency. Thus, Classical Chinese is succinct and impotent. 2A01:C22:BD15:C100:B9C9:6184:A344:8CDE (discuss) 11:45, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
