Correct breathing for speaking is a common issue for PWS. That’s why strategies include a “slow easy start” and using a breathy voice. Marilyn Monroe used a rather slow breathy voice because she stuttered at some point in her life. All speech is supposed to be on exhalation. PWS often get tension or closure at the level of the vocal cords. I haven’t heard about trouble at the level of the epiglottis.
