Original/imaginative ideas are interesting whether they work in practice or not; things that are ingenious are clever and must work, or they are not ingenious; however, they may not be as big or important as things that are innovative or original. * innovative常用於客觀實際和商業語境中,指想法新穎且實用;original、imaginative和inventive更偏重藝術性。original/imaginative idea是新穎有趣的想法,不論實用與否;ingenious形容東西設計精巧、實用性強,否則不能稱之爲ingenious;不過,ingenious形容的事物可能不如innovative或original形容的大或重要。
