HOMO SILLYENCE

Humans speak about 7,000 words a day — and 6,800 are filler, opinions, or “just checking in.”

The 7,000 words a day figure is a popular estimate, and studies have found people speak anywhere from several thousand to about 16,000 words daily. The claim that 6,800 are filler is invented.
