▲ 68 ▼ What's the deal with gasping? Is it an inherent reflex? Is it learned? Did I desensitize myself to the point of not gasping anymore? Do you gasp? Do certain groups of people gasp less commonly?

You know when you say a word so many times in a short window and you forget what it means?

I feel like I've seen them make surprised faces but not gasp, or maybe baby gasps are quieter? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago They do. permalink fedilink source parent [–] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 3 points 1 year ago Yes, babies gasp.
