2. Repetition: This is when the speaker wants to sound like "water" and ends up sounding "wawawater". With this the first syllable is repeated.
3. Blockage: This speech defect occurs when the speaker seems paused and unable to talk for a few seconds when he/she begins talking. With this when the speaker begins to forcefully talk he/she has to shake parts of his body before he/she can speak out.
