Language one of my stronger points as a writer. I tend to wrestle with grammar but that's what editing is for. I have an ear for accents, and code-switch into my natural Scottish dialect when talking with Scottish relatives. But maths? No chance, the look of pure terror on my face if someone throws a question involving subtraction or multiplication would make you think they'd come to murder me and my children.But I have a strong sense for music, which isn't on 'my' side. Visually I can draw to a decent standard too and never forget someone's face, even decades later, names on the other hand I struggle with. But spacial ability? I'm as clumsy as a drunk stag do wobbling into a kebab shop. All the online tests tell me I'm right brained. So surely I should be left handed?
But like all things such as these, it's very rarely simple. The human brain is far more complex than science can explain, we do have some theories but that bag of gray wobbly stuff in the noggin still has scientists a bit baffled. So, after reading a little more into the subject and making both my left and right brain hurt I can only conclude it's not as simple as just splitting left handed and right handedness into neat categories.
It's interesting to look at the information, simplify it and try to decide whether someone is creative or logical. But like all such things it's daft to try and simplify it to the extent that internet tests do. It is rather fun to do them though so give them a whirl, I can't say I give them any credence really. The internet is full of 'quizzes' which like to tell us what we're good at, even if it's not true. It can all hinge on ambiguity in the questions, but that's a rant for another blog. Have a go at these and see if you're left or right brained anyhoos.
This one says I'm right brained.
another right brained one
