This is also something that occurs in disabled speech as people need time to recall words or process their thoughts or may other struggles with speech they're trying to overcome while they buy time. Just fucking let people talk and listen, it isn't so hard.
Mekka Okereke@mekka.mekka-tech.comThe hill I will die on:
Women say "like," "um," and "err," so frequently, because when there is the slightest pause in their speech, they are interrupted by men, and don't get the floor back to speak.🤷🏿♂️
So people that are frequently interrupted tend to use more verbal fillers.
Let women speak.
