I know there is a relationship with many people (they are unable to have internal dialogue while talking for example), but 'thought' is much more than just internal dialogue. Now there has to be some kind of relationship because I'd like to meet someone who is able to speak faster than they think (as apposed to speaking before thinking ;-) What do you think? And if english isn't your first language, and you are translating from your native toungue into english from my experience there isn't usually any 'errr' or 'um'. Instead there is simply a pause.
