[kj] OT: Imagine this happening to Jaz

[Phillipps Marc]

As an ex stutterer (mainly ex, I still tumble over my words sometimes) I
can vouch for the approach that anything that makes you think about how
you are talking will help . .

One popular approach is to make the stutterer slow down:
 
 Following on from what Paul said, i too have a friend who has a stutter
and when he gets too excited i make him speak with a Northern Accent and
suprisingly, this too works! I shit you not!

Following on..

One popular approach is to make the stutterer slow down and reconstruct
their words syllable by syllable, then having them slowly go back to
normal speed of delivery.  Not sure how I worked it out, but a friend of
mine with a speech impediment that was psychological, well, I worked out
that if he said his vowels to kind of prime his words, then spoke
quickly, he was clear!  Not slowly.
 
I'm not a speech therapist or anything, but I'm dead proud of that.  He
still uses that too.  :))
 
Any help in understanding the great accents mystery?

I read back in the day that one of the ways to deal with a stutter is to
use another accent, somehow the mental wiring changes when you put on
another accent. Although in the case of brum there's no discernable
mental activity at all, scientists remain baffled ;)

So maybe the british woman in the article had some bad chinese takeout
food for lunch, which combined with the migraine to give her the accent?

 

I am glad sex has nothing to do with it.
