pronouncing sound after sound rather than the entire word.

pronouncing sound after sound rather than the entire word. I noticed that i dont stutter on short words which only have a few sounds but rather have difficulty with longer words. Today I tried to focus on the sound rather than the word (if that makes any sense) and make sure my mind is on the beginning of the word, for example if i would say the word ''communication'' i would first focus on the 'com' part so that i would pronounce it like ''com-mun-i-cation''. This way i dont push out the words anymore as you guys are probably familiar with. I've been doing this the entire day and haven't stuttered a single time! If this helps somebody please let me know! PS: Would this also explain why we are fluent while singing? When singing we tend to focus on the sounds too rather than the words (atleast i do!) PS 2: Perhaps this prevents our brain from thinking ahead too much since we force our brain to focus on the beginning of the word (sound after sound) therefore limiting the ability to think ahead?
