Can someone tell the difference beteween those.

Yeah, but I don't feel like getting up to get the dictionary.

those are words invented for the purpose of not repeating yourself... have your english teacher ever told u to try to use another word that means the same thing so that u dont repeat the same word over and over? well there u have it ;p

Conotation

Clever gives the idea that you are quick witted and with sometimes unorthodox thinking

brilliant is a word people use when someone comes up with something unexpectedly smart

My owns is this
Clever is when u can think on ur own
Brillant is when u are taught something and u understand
Intelligent is been both brillant and clever
And now to the next question which one are u

well i would say i am none of the above but that just me

(who agrees with me that i am none of the above?)

ok the motion has bin passed

All in Favor... The motion has passed the floor, on for the President's Signature!

So, is it possible to be all three?

As far as I see it, here are my definintions:
Clever: Quick witted and has commen sense (Knows how to use the wheel)
Intelligent: Not nessiceraly book smart, but has a better understanding of things then your normal Joe (Knows how to use the wheel, but also knows how and why it works)
Brillant: Comes up with a new way to do something better...inovation (Makes a better, faster Wheel)
Adding one more:
Genius: Thinks in terms that mear humans can bearly grasp (Scraps the wheel, invents hover craft)

No need to even get up these days:
