I'm in IB English (it's like AP but different), and one of our big assignments is an individual oral commentary. We lose MAJOR marks for inserting filler words or 'interrupting the flow of speech', so we actually practice constantly to remove them from our speech beforehand. And it's crazy how many we use subconsciously. My biggest tip for getting rid of them is to talk slowly. I find that I tend to 'um' and 'uh' when I'm talking too fast for my brain to keep up with what my mouth is saying.

@EmilyEmilyIris - This is really cool. Thanks for the real-world experience and corresponding tip. I can completely relate, and at the same time I have a real challenge with slowing-the-freak-down as I speak, which results in a lot of blabbery phonemes.

Thanks for watching and leaving an insightful comment!

I am in a Speech and Communications class, and we refer to the phonemes as pet words. And as an assignment, we had to spend 24 hours counting how many times we heard one. By the end of the time period, I had close to 400. The highest in my class was 666 (gasp, I know). So now I am VERY concious of when I say these words.

Oh, and by the way... HOO HA NERDFIGHTERS!

DFTBA and Best Wishes!!

@4LiveLifeWithLove4 - Holy! That's such an awesome assignment to hand out. Your teacher rocks.

LIMM at the 666.. That's seriously nuts. Not surprising, but still crazy.

Thank you for watching! DFTBA!

wow thanks for inviting me over. I havent been on the"tube" in awhile. I work as a call center supervisor and we have to train agents not to use fillers. I believe that these fillers happen when people don't know what to say , when they are nervous or too excited. It's as if your brain is moving faster than your mouth.
