There is a lot to be said for SEEING the words...
You don't learn to spell by listening to something.
There's no concrete concept of a word unless it's written.
You might be thinking, "I know how to read. Why wouldn't I just listen to an audiobook?"
Well it's all about linguistics.
What do you read the most? Is it intellectual, is it proper? What do you hear the most?
If you spend most of your time reading idiocy, and hearing idiocy...
You're going to need to listen to and hear a lot of intellectual material to make up for it.
You NEED to SEE the words so that you can be familiar with them in order to spell them and speak them...
The intellectual material needs to outnumber and dominate the idiocy that you take in, and you have to take in the intellectual material in its various forms to make up for the intake of idiocy.
