What speech impediment do you hate the most?

Mon Jun 05, 2006 4:37 am

When people pwonounce R's as W's? When people s-s-s-stutter? When id souds like they hab a chronically stuppy nose?

I personally dislike it when people pronounce their S's through the sides of their cheeks and molars so that "salad" sounds like "shalad".

Actually, some of those impediments they can get help for. My sister used to pronounce her R's as W's, but she went to I think a speech therapist (or something) and it went away. I had a problem with pronouncing my "s"es but I went to one during school and it went away.

There's a fine line in some of these polls sometimes, but do we honestly need a poll that picks out stuff like that?
