someone in a fanfic: s-stutters in embarrassment

me, closing the tab: sorry I must go

Unrealistic Stuttering: “S-sorry I-I d-d-didn’t m-mean t-to…”

Realistic Stuttering: “Sorry, I uh… I didn’t mean- I didn’t mean to do that…”

When people stutter, they usually reword what they’re saying as they speak, and subconsciously insert “filler words” such as “uh, like, you know,” and etc.

ACTUALLY! It depends on why they are stuttering.

A Nervous Stutter results in what is called Mazing, or rewording the sentence. That is the classic “I, um… well I… look it’s just that… so we…” that @hellishhues is talking about. When someone is mazing their words you’re seeing a form of Speech Apraxia where the brain is having trouble forming verbal speech. This can be brought on by brain damage, memory loss, anxiety, nerves, and several other things.

The root cause of a nervous stutter is a disconnect between the mouth and the brain.

With this you will also sometimes see the classic “S-s-s-sorry…” especially if the person has been training to speak clearly and is now at a point of fatigue or stress where they are not mentally capable of forming the words.

The other kind of stutter is a Physical Stutter, sometimes referred to as slurring, and another facet of Speech Apraxia. This stutter is caused when the muscles of the mouth, tongue, and throat are physically unable to form certain sounds. This is most often seen in the very young and victims of brain trauma.

Sounds are acquired at different ages, so a 2-year-old will probably not be able to clearly pronounce certain words (which is why toddler sound so off when they’re written with developed dialogue). These mis-pronunciations are sometimes referred to as lisping, but only if the sounds are run together. If the person starts and restarts the sound because they got it wrong, it can also sound like the classic sound stutter.

But it all depends on why the character is stuttering!

Do they have Speech Apraxia, Audio Processing Disorder, muscle dysfunction, or another medical reason to stutter? (1)

Are they stuttering because of anxiety, stress, or fatigue? (2)

Does the stutter stem from intoxication or blood loss? (3)

All of those will sound different!

1 - Will have mazing, repeated sound stutters, and be the classic stutter that annoys OP.

2 - This is where you’ll see the repetition stutter, mazing, rephrasing, and filler words.

3 - This is where you are more likely to see starts and stops and slurring of words.

My mum has apraxia and I just wanted to say that’s one of the most concise and clear ways I’ve seen it explained, thank you!

Hey, guys! I don’t know how to say this, but the first time I drew Miyuki, I was so proud of me and now I’m ashamed of myself 😂. I’m happy with the final piece, but looking at the old version is like a slap in the face lol. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the video and see you all next week! Love ya!

Hey, guys, to be honest, today I wasn’t going to post anything for everything that it’s happening here in Mexico. This week was hard because I was so scared, anxious and the news don’t help in anything. I tried to smile to everyone, to be strong but in the end, I feel tired and annoyed with myself. I drew this to pause everything for a moment and recover. Drawing makes me happy and I’m feeling better. Hope you like it.

• English: Hi, everyone! In celebration of the Independence of Mexico, I bring you this illustration. I did it with all my love for my beautiful country. I know I don’t make drawings like this one, but in the last few weeks, Mexico is going through great natural disasters… And I had the need to drew this.

• Español: ¡Hola a todos! En celebración por la Independencia de México, les traigo está ilustración que hice con mucho amor por mi hermoso país. Sé que no hago muchos dibujos con está temática, pero México está pasando por una situación difícil debido a los grandes desastres naturales que han estado pasando estas últimas semanas y tuve la necesidad de hacer esto.

Two weeks ago was a close vote between Matt and Sven. Obviously, Matt won the poll, but just for 3 votes so I decided drew him for you. Hope you like it guys! 😄 It’s been a while since I drew an action scene. I’m not good with this kind of drawings, but I really like this one lol.
