Complexity is not the same as Quality.

កំហុសទូទៅបំផុតនៅកម្រិត C2 គឺការព្យាយាមប្រើប្រយោគ និងពាក្យស្មុគស្មាញពេក រហូតដល់បាត់បង់លំហូរធម្មជាតិ និងភាពច្បាស់លាស់។

Student: I'm struggling with the "Over-Editing Trap." How do I know when my writing is too complex? Teacher: A great test is to read your text out loud. If you run out of breath, or if the rhythm feels unnatural and "stiff," you've probably over-engineered your sentences. True C2 writing is elegant, not exhausting!
