| You need to train yourself to speak written speech. When you do that, the thought processes behind typing your words activate, and your language use changes. |

| As a person who often talks far too fast and incoherently, but types generally fast and legibly, I had never recognised or even considered this, but it seems helpful. Thanks. |

| Why bother when old ways work _and_ there is no benefit? Or name one. |

| ▲ | rickydroll 25 minutes ago | parent [-] | | One approach is reading your and other people's written speech out loud. Pay attention to where it feels awkward; for me, that was the direction I needed to practice. A trick that I use currently to reinforce speaking written speech is using Grammarly to make corrections, which I try to internalize. Another trick is don't correct words and letters. Say the sentence you really meant to say. It is not uncommon for me to say a thought or a concept two, three, four times in a row as I'm wrestling with what the language should be on the written page. |
