normal for autistic girls to have a increasingly incomprehensible idiolect composed of
- neologisms they made up that only they and maybe a friend or two use
- esoteric words existing in the dictionary and basically nowhere else
- reappropriation of words to mean something totally different then what most people associate with them
- erratic loan words
- echolalia
- injokes
- household slang
- gestures
- personal names bestowed on "inanimate" objects
- meme references
- media references
- mythological references
- obscure mythological references
- mythological references references literally only they will get because they made them up
- aphasiac circumlocutions used so often they now come up even without word retrieval failure
- kennings, riddles, and deliberately obfuscated/mysterious/cryptic terms
or maybe it's just me
I am in this post and I'm mad, but its missing the idiosynatic phraseology, coming up with your own sayings and metaphor, like for me it's "Don't warm your boots with coffee." meaning don't misappropriate resources.
The coffee could be better drunk for that inner warmth against the harsh cold, but if you pour it on your boots you might not slip on ice for a step or two, but it'll quickly freeze and you'll be right where you were sans coffee.
