Why do they need to be smart, motivated, taught and invest in a good

Motivation is the most important, and they need to be of at least
average intelligence. Smart people make more progress with less
effort and therefore require less motivation. Just about everyone
needs some amount of practice. Being taught accelerates learning but
is not essential.

Only yesterday you were insisting good English and spelling was a
simple matter of intelligence.

Language fluency and intelligence are closely correlated.
