E.g. I found myself speaking similarly to a friend who pauses a lot when speaking. I realized that I’m not just speaking like him. Rather, he revealed to me that continually pausing to question and refine your thoughts while speaking can lead to much sharper ideas.

Code switching is a simple example, but too high level. I think we;re both getting at a level or two below that. Stuff like pauses, errs and umms etc. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code-switching …
