Describing
This method of narration can be done at any time. All you have to do is describe what is going on around you: where you are, why, what is happening, who is there, what they are doing, what they’re like, and so on. Anything. That is really all there is to say about this method, but know that it is very useful and a great way to passive force at any time of the day.
Reading
Basically, you send whatever you are reading to your tulpa as you do so: the words and images, your own thoughts on the subject matter; pretty much anything that comes into mind while reading any sort of writing, you send to your tulpa. Perhaps they will interact with you while you are reading it, or visibly/emotionally respond to what you are sending. It will take some practice to get used to focusing on your tulpa and what you are reading at the same time, but it pays off in the end if you keep trying, as with all things in tulpa creation. You can start off by finding something to read, and visualizing your tulpa beside you while reading it to their form (out loud if you wish, or in your head: either works).
Writing
Theoretically, writing to your tulpa is more effective than reading, as you are the one coming up with what is being said, however it is likely based on who is doing it. In short, you use pen and paper or a computer to write to your tulpa, and that is it. You can talk about anything you like and ignore quality altogether, and think towards your tulpa as you articulate your words in the form of writing. Write to them about your progress in creating them so far, talk about yourself, write about the values you wish for them to learn, and so on.Tulpish can be described as “pure thought” from you or your tulpa, not yet formulated into words. It is an early form of communication, and can be used to develop your tulpa further. Your tulpa can learn and improve communication skills through tulpish: encourage your tulpa to try to communicate with you via tulpish, and have them try to form their thoughts into coherent words. With enough practice, they will be able to do it more easily.
Voice
One step in developing vocality is choosing a voice and helping your tulpa to learn to use it. Make sure your tulpa likes the voice that you choose, or wait for them to choose one themselves. Then, you can practice thinking in that voice while reading or speaking with it in your head. If you learn to think with the voice, it will be easier for your tulpa to, too. Of course, have your tulpa practice using the voice as well. This way, it will stick to them more easily. Do not get frustrated if your tulpa does not use their voice perfectly or all the time. Your tulpa might just use your own voice, and that is fine: that does not make it any less real.
Copying/echoing
This method of practice requires you or someone else saying something (out loud or in your head), and your tulpa practices repeating what was said. They can repeat words or sentences or even songs.A method that can accelerate vocality greatly is simply you or someone else asking your tulpa questions, and they formulate their response accordingly. This is fairly self-explanatory, but while coming up with responses they learn to think and relay their thoughts in the form of words to you. You can ask your tulpa if they like/dislike something, or what they think about certain things that come up in your day-to-day life.
Commenting
Encourage your tulpa to comment on things throughout your day. Tell them not to be shy about telling you what they think, or just generally communicating about what is going on. They can use tulpish to do this, and develop into using full words. Consistency aids in vocal development.
Conversation
Not much needs to be said about this: you or someone else attempts to hold a conversation with your tulpa, thus helping them learn how to speak. This, along with most of these methods, also helps you to learn how to listen to and process what they are saying, until eventually you get to a point when it takes no effort on your end (i.e. there is no real strain or struggle involved).
Proxying
Proxying helps in both letting your tulpa learn how to speak, and you learning how to listen. Basically, your tulpa says something, and you write it down. This is used commonly in tulpa-related chatrooms. Your tulpa speaks, you write. Simple, but essential. This is different from possession, when your tulpa uses the hands to write on their own. Encourage your tulpa to give you things to proxy as you participate in online discussions.This method entails your tulpa speaking, uninterrupted, about anything. Allow your tulpa time to practice monologuing, as it will bring them closer to full vocality as well as independent thought.
Of course, as your tulpa learns to speak, they will not only develop vocality, but they will learn and grow as a person as well, and you will get to know them better, making the entire experience greatly beneficial for everyone involved.
Listening
Many believe that tulpas are fully vocal from the start, and rather than them needing to learn how to speak, you will have to learn how to listen. Or, perhaps they are not yet vocal but are getting to that point. Whatever the case, you learning how to listen is definitely essential. A lot of the time, doubt or certain beliefs might get in the way of you being able to hear them. You should always practice taking a moment to simply quiet your own thoughts and wait for some sort of response. Remember your tulpa will most likely sound/feel like yourself when speaking. If you do not get anything, do not fret: you will eventually. Hearing them might take a little bit of effort, but with practice it will be no problem at all.
