maybe the topic would be better placed under conversation though or some other word wikipedians might find value in a tool called quicktopic it is a free preposterously easy instant discussion space it might fill a gap between this page and the wikipedia mailing list that is if any gaps are found between those two existing mechanisms gaps what gaps but should this go under conversation instead i don't know i'm not a linguist or communications expert not all talking is conversation either in the general sense of talking to another person or in the stricter sense of talking to another person and listening to that other person also perhaps this page should be strictly for the physical phenomenon of human talking or should that be under speech kq speech is the saying of the words i e a transmitter but in no way implies that the listener reciever has actually gotten anything out of it that is how udp protocol is structured i think that talking to an active reviever tcp is really what conversation is about but communication of ideas requiring understanding on the part of the reciever is very far beyond the scope of talk if i talk to a duck that is a speech for while the duck may hear not much else is happening somebody send us a linguist kq ask gritchka damian yerrick any decision made on this yet seems like the article could be considered redundant with other articles and hard to define based on what i've seen here should we keep it rgamble if you create this page geeks will come if you delete this page geeks will want to create it again some people will travel thousands of miles to see the worlds largest rubber band ball i went to talk just so i could come in here and see talk talk see recursion the experience was less frustraiting than talk sex but not as good as mar utc i have removed this paragraph because i thought it didn't really add something to the article and sounds like a joke to me nov utc talk is also used when talking to other people in standard english you would say i am talking to someone however this varies when we look at australian south african or estuary english this is due to changes in dialect in standard australian english one would say 'i'm talkin' to someone darl' and in south african one would say i'm talking to someone yis and in estuary english one would say can't yoow see im talkin' to someone love just give me a minute chavs completely mangle the word talk and would instead say your chattin sh t and thus the history of the english language is clearer for another day tab tabsleep tight kids perhaps this is my noobieness showing but could one somehow make a disambiguation page for the subject i made a disambiguation page last week but after reading this discussion i think it would be for the best if i act unilaterally and move talk to talk unix and move talk disambiguation to talk and therefore that is what i am going to do ta ra teehee there really is a talk talk i feel special now if i were to slit my wrists right now i would die a happy man
