kuna mtu mmoja hapa amesema hapa kwamba kithembe dawa yake ni kuzungumza kiingereza throughout,
lakini mbona wazungu wenyewe tatizo hili inaonekana nao wanalo jamani?
natatizika hapa mwenzenu...!
kidogo imejaribu kuelezewa hapa..
A lisp is a Functional Speech Disorder (FSD), and a functional speech disorder is a difficulty learning to make a specific speech sound, or a few specific speech sounds.
Typically, when a person lisps their tongue either protrudes between, or touches, their front teeth and the sound they make is more like a 'th' than a "s".
Protruding the tongue between the front teeth while attempting "s " is referred to as 'interdental' production, and touching the front teeth with the tongue while attempting to produce "s" is called 'dentalised' production.
Usually kids who are demonstrating a frontal lisp will substitute a sound close to the voiceless /th/ for the /s/. You may hear words that sound like this: "saw" sounds like " thaw" , "grasshopper" sounds like "grathhopper", and "class" sounds like "clath".
Children developing speech along typical lines may have interdental lisps until they are about 4½ - after which they disappear. If they don't 'disappear' a speech language pathologist should complete an assessment and initiate treatment as demeaned appropriate...""
that means, tatizo hili si kwa waswahili tu, bali ni disorder tu!
yawezekana pia hata wahindi, wachina, wajapani na mataifa mengineyo wanalo hili tatizo!
