A person who is sort of intelligent- literal word meaning.
Could be easily confused with
pseudo- intellectual or intelligence, which is someone who acts like they know a lot when actually they know very little or nothing at all . Much like tree
pipers definition for quasi intellectual. A
pseudo intellectual could very likely be quasi intelligent.
Ex. brian is great at thinking deep and has some great ideas but he
can't defend his arguements if people get into the
details (facts, science, other
logic, etc). Brian is a quasi- intellectual.
