Trouble du rythme de la parole: le langage est précipité, désordonné, entrecoupé d’arrêts, il est souvent incompréhensible. 2, record 1, French, - bredouillement
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
On doit distinguer du bégaiement, le bredouillement et le bafouillage. Le bredouilleur, d’après E. Pichon et S. Borel-Maisonny, a une pensée convenablement formulée en langage, mais il veut l'exprimer trop vite, il demande trop à son clavier neurologique de réalisation. Il en arrive à écraser tout à fait les mots et les rendre méconnaissables. 2, record 1, French, - bredouillement
