What’s it called when I know what someone expects me to answer so my brain tries to rewire itself in order to be able to answer differently? It happens basically every time I see a question presented like this
The “k” sound in names of objects is often associated with pointier things, like spikes, for example.
in English maybe, but the Babou/Kkki phenomenon is language independent

There is a strong general tendency towards the effect worldwide; it has been robustly confirmed across a majority of cultures and languages in which it has been researched,[4] for example including among English-speaking American university students, Tamil speakers in India, speakers of certain languages with no writing system, young children, infants, and (though to a much lesser degree) the congenitally blind.[4] It has also been shown to occur with familiar names. The bouba–kiki effect is one form of sound symbolism
