No, you cannot effectively talk while mewing.
Trying to maintain the correct tongue posture for mewing while simultaneously engaging in speech simply will not work. The act of talking requires movement of your tongue, which contradicts the stationary, upward position required for proper mewing technique.
Here's a breakdown of why talking and mewing are incompatible:
- Mewing Tongue Position: Mewing involves placing your entire tongue, including the back third, against the roof of your mouth. This specific posture is essential for the technique to be effective.
- Talking Tongue Movement: Speech requires significant tongue movement and articulation, which directly interferes with the fixed tongue position required for mewing.
- Compromised Mewing: Attempting to talk while mewing means you will inevitably lose the correct tongue posture, thus rendering the mewing exercise ineffective. The reference confirms that, "Trying to mew while talking just won't work."
- Chewing Consideration: While chewing can theoretically be done while mewing (although not advised due to choking hazards), the act of talking requires much more dynamic tongue movement that makes mewing impossible. The reference explains, "When you're chewing or talking while mewing, you're further delaying the results."
Essentially, mewing requires a controlled, static tongue position, while talking requires a dynamic and changing one, so these two actions are mutually exclusive.
