Unique – adj. being the only one of its kind; unlike anything else. It is an absolute, binary term. Something is either “unique” or it is not. There is no “somewhat unique.”
Gifted – adj. having great special talent or ability.
The social media has accelerated the reduction to an electronic Tower of Babel-level absurdity of freedom of speech, and has completed the devaluation of our linguistic currency. But we are about to venture back, when talk was less cheap, to the gold standard of “unique” and “gifted.’ If you prefer optics to linguistics, then be sure your “unique” lens is sharp and clear and that your “gifted” lens is focused; otherwise you will misperceive the subject with a foggy blur, as if watching a 3-D movie without the requisite glasses.
