Is high IQ necessary for languages?

Hello, my name is Marlene.
Is it necessary to have a high IQ to learn several languages? Is that true?
How can I find out what my IQ is?.

Hello Marlene,
I think that it is not necessary to have a high IQ to learn several languages, what you need is to practice a lot.
I came across this site, http://official-iqtest.org, which offers some interesting tests.

Hello Marlene!
Having a high IQ is not a strict requirement for learning multiple languages. While intelligence can certainly aid in language learning, factors such as motivation, exposure, practice, and effective learning strategies play significant roles as well. Many people successfully learn multiple languages regardless of their IQ level. As for determining your IQ, there are various IQ tests available, both online and administered by professionals. Keep in mind that IQ tests measure a specific type of intelligence and may not fully capture all aspects of cognitive abilities or potential. Additionally, individual IQ scores should be interpreted with caution and not viewed as definitive measures of intelligence or potential.

No, you don't need a super high IQ to learn several languages. What matters more is your dedication, the methods you use, and how much time you're willing to invest in learning. People with all sorts of IQ levels become polyglots!

Just wanted to echo what the others have said - don't worry too much about IQ. Having motivation and putting in lots of practice is really what matters most for language learning. Why don't you try that official IQ test if you're curious, but don't let a number discourage you. And I second the recommendations for tools like aithor - anything that makes practice more engaging can help boost your skills.
