I've gotten pretty good at my name. I just stoped avoiding it. Went through a phase of stuttering through it. Now my subconscious no longer fears saying my name, and I rarely stutter on it....

Thank you for that. This is actually something I typically do normally, and how I have a fairly large vocabulary lol. It never occurred to me to say that so I'll do that next time. Thank you again!...

Tip for you: try saying "sent here" instead or something of that nature. Sometimes switching up your wording can help you get around a stutter a little bit ...

I do, I haven't said that word in years. Its ridiculous to stutter on stuttering, just like lisping on the word lisp. Or misspelling dyslexia. My husband tried for 30 minutes the other night to get...

Just FYI, you can go into the settings of the Alexa app and change the wake word to "Computer" or "Echo". At least one of those doesn't start with a vowel, lol...

Oooh thanks I'll give it a try! Unfortunately the other wake words of Echo and Amazon aren't too much better. I feel a bit of an idiot to say Computer too. Gone with Echo which comes out as Eh..Eh.....

As long as “Alexa” is in the word, Alexa will wake up. So if you say “HmmmKlAlexa”, she will respond. I figured this out a while back with my pets. It was not that I needed to use it, it was just out ...
