Those who saw my talks in person have learned by now that I stutter, especially while reading. I’ve learned that for some reason I stutter a lot on the /m/s in “missionary” and “Missouri.”

Well I just realized I gave or read talks on Missionary Voice and Missourian English at #LSA2024/ADS2024. 🤦🏻‍♂️😂
