Expert quote:
“Not being able to say a full sentence, or saying a sentence where the words sound garbled, is extremely frustrating. It can also cause a person to feel embarrassed or ashamed, so they would rather choose not to speak anymore than to say something and feel embarrassed about it.” – Swathi Kiran, the James and Cecilia Tse Ying Professor in Neurorehabilitation in the Department of Speech, Language & Hearing Sciences
