Yeah, that definitely makes it difficult. What about something like, "I have a disability where it's hard for me pronounce certain words and the opposite of large is one of them."? In other words, coming up with a phrase or sentence that you're more confident you can say without a stutter that will get the point across. One of the hardest things for me was the first day of class when teachers would have everyone go around the room and say their name. My last name starts with a soft 'E' sound and I nearly always stutter when I say it around new people. It's brutal!!
