The Disfluency of Speech

Stuttering, also known as stammering, is an interrupted flow of speech. It's a normal part of communication if it occurs about less than 10% of the time. After that, you start to get into the stuttering slash stammered spectrum or side of the disfluent spectrum. "It doesn't pay to focus on disfluency in our own language because it can drive you nuts," says co-host Jerry Seinfeld.
