Stuttering and Knowing another language I speak 2 languages. I had to relearn Tagalog when I left Canada. I stuttered a lot during that time. I still stutter now but not as severe. I also stutter in English but it isn't as bad, I only stutter on certain consonants. Does anybody else find their stutter is different depending on the language they chose to speak? How does stuttering affect you learning a new language? I tried learning Mandarin. Aside from the obvious hard things like different tones. I kinda gave up learning it as starting to speak a sentence was difficult and frustrating due to the stuttering.
