I don't know if anyone else here has a stutter, but if so, have anybody noticed their stutter get worse when speaking to someone else with a stutter?

I have noticed my stutter gets exponentially more severe when talking to someone with a similar impediment, and have even been accused of pretending or making fun of said people. I was just curious as to if I was the only one this happens to, or if maybe it's across the board.

Interesting thought, I think!

So it becomes like a stutter echo chamber?

I do not have a stutter now. I did when I was young, which lead to a lot of speech therapy. However, I do have a slight southern accent. When talking to a person with an accent, I tend to reflect that accent. If it's a heavy southern accent, you'd swear it wasn't me talking. And I have been accused of making fun of their accent. From my experience I think it's normal to reflect, but it does present an appearance issue. I don't know if this helps, but I understand where you are coming from. Stay strong.

I think that we, as empathetic people, mirror the people we talk to.
This applies to body language and speech.
See you all in game i hope

As Badman mentions, I'm sure there is a psychological explanation of this, I'll see if I can find anything about it :)

So far I find that subconscious mimicry serves the purpose of increasing the extent to which the partners in a social interaction get along, and making the interaction run more smoothly, for instance when working together on something. And a higher empathetic disposition does indeed correlate with a higher disposition to subconscious mimicry.

We actually have mirror neurons which are held, by some scientists, to serve the purpose of enabling us to understand the actions of others and learn new skills, although it is still a very unclear area of investigation.

I can't find anything about mirroring accents specifically, but it would make sense to classify it as a type of social behaviour. And I imagine people more often perceive accent mimicry as a possible mocking, since it is a more obvious thing to mimic than a hand gesture, for instance.

I know as a child I picked up a lot of accents along the way when my daddy was in the air force. we moved from California to Texas to the Philippians then to Oregon and Washington state. by the time I was in fourth grade I had to go to speech therapy in school to teach me English. I always thought I did speak English but apparently no one could understand me.

so yes we do pick up different accent from people we are around.


as for the stuttering it could be the same since you had that problem and talking to someone who also had that problem likely did not help.

just my 2 cents
