What do you do if someone doesn't understand something you said?

That's true. I will explain things in a different way if someone genuinely hasn't understood. Although I sometimes get annoyed if someone doesn't understand no matter how many different ways you put what you say.

Obviously you aren't intelligent. You have made that perfectly clear. Now go away. I don't care if you agree with things or not. This is the kind of thing that bothers me, not that people disagree but they aren't capable of understanding what is actually being said but assume someone else thinks they're stupid because they don't agree when it's actually got nothing to do with agreeing or disagreeing, just a matter of not being able to understand. If someone whose first language isn't English didn't understand something, that's fair enough but they should just admit they don't understand rather than complain about everyone else. Now, this question is not to do with the other one. It's perfectly obvious that you will never grasp the idea of what was actually being said there but don't moan about it everywhere else.

" assume someone else thinks they're stupid because they don't agree when it's actually got nothing to do with agreeing or disagreeing" I think it's best that people should take their own advice before giving to others. If you would have READ the thread completely and the replies, you have have seen her calling people stupid. There was nothing to assume there. Ofcourse you want me to go away, because I don't agree with you, be a big girl about it. You accused every mother on there that has a job of being a bad mother. You should be ashamed of yourself and embarrassed to conduct yourself in that kind of manner.

I understand wht you mean. If I am speaking English, I have no problem trying to make it easier for someone with a different first language to understand. The only thing I have a problem with is when something is explained in plain English to another person who has no reason not to understand but you still can't make it simple enough for them to understand!

Some people have given really good answers but I think you have given the broadest answer with all the possibilities.

Well, that's a good point but if I didn't understand something, I would ask the person to explain. I try not to get angry but sometimes when you have explained something clearly to someone who should understand, it's very frustrating if they still don't understand, particularly if you have tried several times!
