Semantic Satiation Semantic Satiation Semantic Satiation
Semantic satiation
Will stretch the imagination
To the point of obliteration
Of the word's association.
Too much saturation
Of linguistic sussuration
Can lead to situations
Of over stimulation;
Repetitious undulations
Lead to the sensation
Called semantic satiation,
Just like this occasion.
Semantic satiation is a psychological phenomenon in which repetition causes a word or phrase to temporarily lose meaning for the listener, who then perceives the speech as repeated meaningless sounds.
I.e. saying the same word over and over.
