Talk:Word of mouth

Self-contradiction

"Word of mouth is the passing of information by verbal means" ...and few lines below... "Word of mouth is typically considered a spoken communication, although web dialogue, such as blogs, message boards and emails are often now included in the definition." It contradicts itself, so I hope someone can put a better version. I would if my English was a bit better. --logixoul 09:12, 13 September 2005 (UTC)

Verbal can refer to any communication using words, although it is sometimes used to mean only spoken (oral) communication. I don't think there is a contradiction, since the meaning should be clear from the context. Wmahan. 17:26, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

Umm, I thought verbal was used always in this sense... I've just learned something new =) --logixoul 19:20, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

Wouldn't that definition include all communication involving languages? This would mean primary sources are word of mouth. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 17:05, 24 October 2005 (UTC)

That Japanese section really needs to be cleaned up by someone who is familiar with the topic. icydid 16:04, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
