Is being talented and smart/intelligent the same thing?

PhilosophyAddict

not at all you can be a genius with no talent and you can be mentally disabled with a talent

Being talented can be a big help in what you want to achieve and you would have an advantage. But you still need to use your intelligence to remember, improvise and use vocabulary. Your intelligence is not the same as your talent. Some people have talent but they never improve if they don't use their brain. A smart person gets ahead and will use his/her talents to achieve and to perform . Being talented, means you have a natural ability to do something. Intelligence means being able to acquire knowledge. They are different things but being used together you would be smart.

Intelligence can be a type of talent, I think.

It's not as if there's a greater balloon altitude than that, for sure.
