I am stammerer, it's no matter I am a stammerer(or stutterer, sorry I could not distinguish them. please tell me If possible). It started when I was about 5 years old and I still stammer even though It became better. I remember that sometimes I was used to be teased for my stammering by heartless people around me at that time. I did not care of it, and when it is now and thinks, I must appreciate that experience because I got to realize who is nobody through that. Aside from that, everyone who are non-stammers may think that "why do stammers stammer ?". Of course, we stammerers do not want to stammer on purpose, even we really do know "why do we stammer ?" They say that It is unknown fully why stammerers stammer. However, I suppose, as a stammerer itself, there may some way for stammerers to speak a little bit more smoothly. For instance, I often stammer with "H". So, It is difficult for me to say "Hajimemasite" (which means "How do you do" or "Nice to meet you" in English) When I say it, I bounce onto "H" as "a-Hajimemasite" to get easier to say. (you could see that way in the movie,"The King's Speech") Another way is to replace with other words to say easier. If I want to say "iPhone" but I just notice to stammer before saying it, I immediately replace it with "mobile of Apple". So, I think I have a much trouble in speaking in fact, like the above mentioned, but I also think I feel that it is exciting to live as a stammerer. Every time I speak, the unconscious bring my speaking to a halt and require me to use my brain quickly. Every each time it happens, I have to try to find out a possible means to speak in a second. That's why I think it is exciting to stammer, I often have to take too long time to speak a simple word and my listener often have to be thrown in a profound silence though! Sorry! As there is a lot of language in the world, there is a lot of way to speak. I am stammerer, but it's no matter. Thank you for reading my prosaic note and I hope you would be so kind as to correct it!

I am stammerer, but it's no matter

I am a stammerer. It started when I was about 5 years old and I still stammer even though it has gotten better.

I remember that sometimes I used to be teased for my stammering by heartless people around me at that time.
I did not care about it and when I think about it now, I actually appreciate that experience because I got to realize who was not worth having in my life.

Aside from that, everyone who are non-stammers may think that "why do stammers stammer"? 
Of course, we stammerers do not want to stammer on purpose, even we do not really know why we do stammer.

Experts say that it is unknown fully why stammerers stammer.
However, I suppose, as a stammerer myself, there may some way for stammerers to speak a little bit more smoothly.

For instance, I often stammer with "H". So, it is difficult for me to say "Hajimemasite" (which means "How do you do" or "Nice to meet you" in English). 
When I say it, I bounce onto "H" as "a-Hajimemasite" to make it easier to say. You could see that same approach used in in the movie,"The King's Speech". 

Another way is to replace with difficult words with other words that are easier to pronounce.
If I want to say "iPhone", but I notice that I stammer before saying it, I immediately replace it with "mobile of Apple".

So, I think I have a lot of trouble speaking, like the above illustrates, but I also I feel that it is exciting to live as a stammerer.
Every time I speak, the unconscious brings my speaking to a halt and requires me to use my brain quickly.
Every time it happens, I have to try to figure out a possible description to use in place of my original thought.

That's why I think it is exciting to stammer. I often take a long time to speak a simple word and my listener often is thrown into a profound silence though! Sorry!

As there are a lot of languages in the world, there are a lot of ways to speak.
I am stammerer, but it's no matter.

 

Congratulations! My mom is also a stammerer. In the US, we usually use stutter, but they mean the same thing and will be understood either way.
