Each person is unique, with their own special personality, preferences and dislikes, thoughts and feelings. Identical twins are no exception. They may look the same, but they are not the same person and it is not fair to view them, so there are ways to share identical twins.

Steps

1. 1 Learn their names, pronunciation and spelling. It is not necessary to distinguish them by their names, but it is necessary to remember them. Write them down and say each 20 times, etc.
2. 2 Observe the twins and remember the distinctive habits - notice any differences in hairstyles, clothing choices, backpacks / wallets, glasses, or lack thereof? Perhaps one is higher than the other? Having a scar on one of your hands? These nuances will help you differentiate between twins.
3. 3 Observe physical differences - this is key in separating identical twins - height, glasses / contact lenses, freckles, tone of voice, etc. For example, Allison has freckles on her face, but Carrie does not. Use this to tell them apart!
4. 4 Listen to them. The timbre of the voice can often be a trump card. Does one of them have a squeaky voice? Remember who.
5. 5 Spend time with both of them and try to memorize things they both love and dislike - most twins share each other's addictions, but often there are things they disagree with.
6. 6 The more often you interact with them, the easier it will be to tell them apart.

Tips

• Some twins can be deceivers. In their midst, it is considered fun to confuse others. However, keep in mind that not everyone does this.
• Remember that twins love to be appreciated for their individuality.
• Some people like to wear different hairstyles.
• The more time you spend with identical twins and get to know them, the faster you will forget about this factor.
• Remember they are not the same person.
• Don't worry too much about confusing their names - the twins are usually used to it, and hyping the big problem out of this incident can only be annoying.
• If you could not distinguish the twins, then it is better to name one of the names than none.

Warnings

• And one more note, do not overuse jokes about twins, they may seem witty to you, but are boring and commonplace for the addressees. At the very least, do not get hung up on the fact that they will live with it all the time.
• Do not assume that two non-identical siblings can be twins if you are not one hundred percent sure about it. The same clothes and height do not make people twins, they may get angry or embarrassed about your assumption.
• Never call them "good" and "bad" twin. It is neither appreciated nor amusing.
• Be careful, they may try to mislead you.
