What does one have to read/do to become witty/ get a silver tongue.
read witty authors?
wilde comes to mind
Nothing, its just a skill. You'd be better off studying psychology if that's what you are trying to do.
Being witty is overrated desu

study psychoanalysis and psychology. watch standup comedy
Find a comedian and watch everything theyve ever done, memorise your favourite stories and quips
For instance there are probably days worth of Norm Macdonald on Weekend Update and his talk show appearances
Those comedians also learned the same way, by being obsessed with comedians before them
Winston Churchill wrote most of his quips in a notebook and memorised them so he always had a relevant thing to say

You have to be intelligent. Have situational awareness. Ability to read people. Charismatic. Understanding language well and ability to keenly choose words on the fly. A good silver-tongue can lie three times without saying a single lie. Must be confident, and must feel in control of any situations or conversations involved in. You never have allies or enemies, or either or none of the moment. Whichever and whatever gets you want you want. Chaotic Neutral.
Anything else and you're just a pseud, much like a quarter of today's gay population.

This you need.
>Must be confident, and must feel in control of any situations or conversations involved in.
This you don't need if you're funny enough. But if you're confident then obviously it's a plus in life.
If you have to ask....
Don't worry about it
