In a way, these are like loops eh? A word like ok or anyway after every
other
sentence would be sort of like a "glitch" loop.
Rhythmic iterative patterns perform a linking function that are part of an
individual's sense of flow. Partly it may be a fear of using pause/silence
for
emphasis, so the repeated words are there for continuity and sustaining
the
thought constructs as well as "holding the floor".
There is an artist who is using software to remove language from speech so
that you can hear what is between the words : sighs, clicks, rumbles etc.
These
also appear in repetitive looping patterns. I don't have the url handy but
it
is called Language Removal Services and there are audio clips, a search at
www.npr.org or google should bring it up.
