Correct?

CalifJim
anonymousHe sometimes talks like Jack would talk.(If Jack were here, he would talk like this but he is not here at the moment) This is how I understand it. Is my understanding correct?

No. It has nothing to do with whether Jack is there. It has to do with how Jack talks no matter where he is.

Also if I know Jack very well, with this context, can I still say the sentence,’he sometimes talks like Jack would talk.’?

’? Yes. I don't see why you think it has anything to do with how well you know Jack, because it doesn't.
