"Dysfluency" Meaning

Dysfluency refers to the difficulty or struggle a speaker has when attempting to speak, characterized by interruptions, repetitions, or prolongations of sounds, syllables, or words. It is often observed in individuals with Developmental Apraxia of Speech, Specific Language Impairment, or other speech disorders. Dysfluency can also be a normal part of a child's language development, especially during the age range of 2 to 7, as they learn to articulate sounds and words correctly.

Dysgenics refers to the negative effects of modern civilization on the human gene pool, as a result of factors such as social and economic inequalities, and changes in human behavior, leading to the decline of the human population's average intelligence, health, and overall quality. It is often seen as the opposite of eugenics, which aims to improve the human gene pool through selective breeding and other means. The term was coined by biologist Paul Ewald in 1991.
