This used to happen occasionally when I worked as Tech Support via phone. Occasionally there would be a echo in the line reporting back everything I had said, but with a delay long enough that when I was trying to speak, my mind was trying to understand the audio. It did mess up my speech patterns.

One day it happened on every phone call. After near 7 hours of it I got VERY good at learning to speak through and ignore the echo. But I still had issues understanding the customer because I was focusing on speaking my mind and ignoring my hearing.

It can be ignored but it will definitely trip up anyone.

If you have audio software on your computer that can take live audio and introduce a short delay you can attempt to hold conversations with someone on the phone like that. Its very difficult to speak your mind then.
