they say that we have a skewed perspective since we only hear upper class brits, but still -- pit them against our upper class and they still outclass us in eloquency. even a prole like russell brand has a COMMAND of speech that americans can't match up to

Seems right to me. I read that selective pressures in English society led to better than average verbal fluency

Most valued in decadent English upper class are wit, charm, humor

i was going to say i like verbal fluency better because i thought that's what verbal iq means and verbal iq sounds stupid

but

Verbal intelligence is the ability to analyze information and solve problems using language-based reasoning. Language-based reasoning may involve reading or listening to words, conversing, writing, or even thinking.

wtf does this even mean?

It's just because they use words we don't think about like "cross" instead of "angry".

Think about how prole southerners still talk like "gentlemen" sometimes. Lol @ some chav brits w/ a good vocab. "U FOOKIN WOT M8"

I don't think it's innate ("verbal IQ"). I think it's cultural. The Brits just have a mode of "eloquence" wherein saying things a certain way, using a more expansive vocabulary, is a natural part of public life.

In America, even the smartest ppl --including academics, even people who are extremely eloquent writers -- have it drilled into them that they must be 'plain-spoken' and laconic, folksily unpretentious, etc. It's an American value.

So you get literary writers and PhD's on general-audience interview programs, and they speak like bumpkins. It's very unfortunate.
