Block your air off then keep it tight while trying to speak. That’s how it feels. Air doesn’t come out. No air = no words...

I voted "no", as long as you don't do it in front of us or in a mocking way. Personally I cannot stand to hear others stutter, not that I find it embarassing, I honestly feel extremely empathetic to t...

This is a great question. In scholarly papers it is usually depicted as, “Y-y-y-you..” Are you the one writing? If so try not to lean into the part word or single sound repetitions. The single sou...
