I tend to be more verbose when I type than when I talk. It's a bit annoying when I find myself unable to articulate something well when I'd had it planned out perfectly in my head beforehand; I'm just not a good speaker, I suppose.


I'm exactly the same way! I get so tongue-tied talking to ANYONE in real life; it's so irritating.

I talk text speak and slang and type in decent English. It's easier to articulate in type because I can slow down and think about what I'm writing. Plus, I live in the South. Poor speech kind of comes naturally.

I tend to talk the way I speak. Even in essays and reports I tend to sound how I speak even though it is modified a bit. I know you're not really supposed to do that but not following some standard rules of written english usually allows me to produce more enjoyable but still correct assignments.

For some reason, I mispronounce every other word. It's very annoying when my sister has to correct me, I feel like a five-year-old struggling to grasp the pronunciation of a complicated word.

I tend to use a larger vocabuary when I type and write. Most of the time it's because when I say something my friends say, "Huh?" and I got sick of explaining myself. But I do however use those words in debates.
