articulation mechanics

The process of selecting the words which will best express one's thoughts and/or emotions, ordering and reordering those words in one's head, writing them down.
Unable to, as usual, easily put an idea she 'felt' into words, Serenata applied 'articulation mechanics' by selecting the words that best expressed her idea, ordering and reordering them in her head, and writing them in a notebook. She called that mental and physical process articulation mechanics.

Premature Articulation

When someone interrupts you while you are talking but what they have to say has nothing to do with what you were talking about. Someone who talks out of turn.
ME: My boss fired me the other day because I kept interrupting him when he was trying to tell me what to do.

YOU: Sounds like you suffer from Premature Articulation.

articulation

The way in which someone speaks. If they have bad articulation, it is generally thought that this person is an imbecile. If they articulate themselves well, you may continue to converse with them.
Bad articulation: "Like, I love the way that the colours in the sky are like totally pretty. I wonder if that's because of the atmosphere or some shit."

Good articulation: "The colours in the sky are fantastic, and very beautiful. Maybe it's because of the atmosphere that they are this way."

Articulate

(adj) Well-spoken, possessing a talent for lucid and effortless speech.

"...and those are the biggest ways Aristotle differed from Plato's teaching."

"I have to agree, that was quite an articulate discourse"
