Re: Slang that is getting on my nerves

[(Anonymous)]

I don't think it really needs to be there at all.

Okay, if you don't think it needs to be explicit, then tell me which word is stuttered in this sentence:

"But I just can't stand the thought of Jack leaving me!" she stuttered.

Re: Slang that is getting on my nerves

Maybe it's okay in that sentence.

The stutter thing mostly annoys me when it's someone making a fake argument they disagree with, where they are speaking from the point of view of the person they think would be making that argument. So I wasn't thinking about sentences in the third person, that are actually conveying information or are part of a story. In that context, it doesn't annoy me.

Like, in general typing, or in fiction?

I could see a use for both, if you want to indicate a tone of hesitation in a typed conversation, or if you're writing a character with a stutter.

What about when you want to show someone is unsure of pronunciation or what to say?

"I was very fl-flattered" or "you can't just r-raise the dead!" or whatever?
