Is there a definition for such school subjects as literature, biology, history and others in the English language? Can we call them “ oral subjects”?

    On what criterion would you want to call them "oral subjects"? As opposed to what kind of other subjects? Can you elaborate? I think this is a potentially good question and needs to be clearer.

  • Literature is more often non-verbal than it is oral. (Although it could be described that way in context.) Also, I've never heard of biology described as oral. It's a strange subject to have included in the group.

    How is biology considered to be a liberal art? It's a science.
