Stringing together a sentence poll

Post Reply New Topic

This is on a regular basis.

LOL....there are times when I talk TOO much....

According to the report of the neurologist who examined me, I am unable to string more than 4 words together.
But I can.
When I want to.
I just didn't want to at the time.

I can manage dozens and dozens, which isn't meant to be showing off, as it's debatable whether the sentences make enough sense to understand, what with all the sub-clauses (you know, the little asides that, if you were writing them, you would write in brackets and between commas) which can sometimes be somewhat tangential to the subject (and are sometimes even (for example, like this bit (and this bit too) just here) nested very deeply inside each other), and my weird way of using wave upon wave of figures of speech and words which not all the peeps can grok ('appen even fallolloping 'ither 'n' thither twixt t'local tyke and a much posher dialect), and, of course, not strictly meaning multiples of twelve when I said "dozens", and... [gasps for breath before passing out], and..., and..., um..., err..., sorry, what was I talking about again?

Other times, just getting a vaguely positive/negative sounding grunt out of me can be hard work.

How many words can I string together?

Ya mean in one sentence?

Ya mean, like spoken words?

Not texting?

In a face to face conversation IRL?

Dunno.

Never thought about it before.

The above is more, or less, how I would sound IRL if we were talking in person. Sentences range from one, to 9 words. Averaging maybe five words.

Verbally? In writing? With how much preparation? In what kind of setting? To what kind of person? Or animal? Or myself?

Each of those has a vastly different answer.

Most of the time I can string together 5 or more words.

Sometimes they won't make sense, but I can still do it.

Then there are times were I can barely get a word out.

2. no thanks, thank you, not now, stop it etc and the ever popular f*** off.
