Stuttering in diffrent languages I'm curious, if you speak more then one language, do you see any differences between how you speak in each of them? I'm Polish and I speak English. I feel like I stutter a similar amount in both of them, but kinda in diffrent ways. In Polish most of the time I repeat parts of words, and in English it's more like a block. But in both of them there are specific words that make me stutter almost always when I try to use them. In Polish it's easier for me to find synonym so I can hide it better tho.
