social question

if someone started stuttering, maybe trying to say something about 5 times what would you feel or think? Would you feel uncomfortable?
Why would you feel uncomfortable? They are the one with the stutter.

TBF, I think the OP is asking about what should they do about it.

I've encountered a few people with a stammer, and I'd naturally try and help them out by saying the word... some people are grateful, others seem to hate it.

@lillie white if it's someone I know reasonably well, I'd say the word for them. If it's a stranger, then I'd probably let them try and finish (unless perhaps they're really struggling).
