Consider the following list of personality traits naturally associated with intuition:

•perceive with memory and associations
•complex conceptual speech pattern using lots of compound sentences
•more figurative using analogies/metaphors
•focused on the possibilities
•more in their heads
see patterns and meanings
•repeat themselves recap and rephrase
•project possibilities for the future
•bored easily after learning skills
•read between the lines
•looking for the big picture
•get hunches out of nowhere
•finish other peoples thoughts (interrupting)
•leap around in a roundabout way mentally

Good start. Do N's really use more complex sentence structures? That's interesting.

The part about "more in their heads" seems like it could also fit introversion. I think the types most stereotypically in their heads are INxx.

And are N's more likely to repeat themselves? I know I frequently do this myself, I've never attributed it to N or any other letter. I think you're right about the recap and rephrasing. It takes some N to reword something. I think an S would be more likely to repeat it verbatim.
