Fast talkers

Are you one? Or do you know one?

I'm fascinated by these type of people, especially when they're vocabulary is boundless.

Yes I'm one :colondollar:

Glaswegians and Scots in general are bad for being really fast talkers. My friend from Liverpool has to tell me to slow down when I speak :colondollar:

I feel bad for people that get a fast talker as their lecturer.

I'm a bit of a fast talker although I actively try and talk a bit slowly so people can hold on :biggrin:

I get told that I talk fast at times. I don't think that's the case though. They can't keep up. :hand:

I can understand most fast talkers, but not every single one are speaking clearly as they think. You know how you have never heard your own voice on an audio or video before? But then you do hear yourself talk and your voice for the first time? Yep.

I'm a very fast talker if I'm passionate about something - particularly biochemistry or politics!

I would also claim to have a wide vocabulary, so it can be problematic for some to understand me at times!
