Please see this wikipedia link to know about apraxia of speech.
I have it. Hans Asperger's said that aspies are little professors and their speech is fine but closer inspection by lorna wing revealed that speech of many aspies is artificial in that the use memorized phrases.

My mother tells me my speech is sometimes monotone, but I don't think I have this.
