echolalia

Tanımlar (İngilizce)

1. isim The involuntary repetitive echoing of words or phrases spoken by another person; either immediate or delayed.

2. isim An infant's repetitive imitation of vocal sounds spoken by another person, occurring naturally during childhood development.
3. isim Any apparently meaningless, repetitious noises, especially voices.
