@pathfinder@actuallyautistic they must’ve thought you were takin’ a piss, if I’m getting my Britishism correct.
My skill in imitating speech wasn’t something I discovered early on in my life. I learned English as a second language from age 10 forward and when I was late teens, I had some insecurities about my accent so I started paying more attention to how people were speaking. Then I learned by deliberate practice how to use my vocal tract and mouth in different ways. I also learned singing in that same period because that’s pretty much the same skill set essentially.
