Tachylalia

Tachylalia or tachylogia[1] is extremely rapid speech.[2] Tachylalia by itself is not considered a speech disorder. Tachylalia occurs in many clutterers and many people who have speech disorders.

Tachylalia is a generic term for speaking fast, and does not need to coincide with other speech problems.

Tachylalia may be exhibited as a single stream of rapid speech without prosody, and can be delivered quietly or mumbled. Tachylalia can be simulated by stimulating the brain electronically.[3]

Occurrences

Tachylalia can occur with the following:

gollark: None are safe, I'm pretty certain.
gollark: Oh no, what if LyricLy used induction over the positive integers to predict arbitrarily many levels of deception‽
gollark: Or LyricLy wants us to think someone wants us to think LyricLy wants us to think that.
gollark: Or someone wants us to think LyricLy wants us to think that, so nboody realizes the thing was not by LyricLy.
gollark: Or LyricLy just wants us to think that (also all the references to their Rust program).
