Very interesting article – I didn’t realize that stuttering could be present in only one language for a bilingual speaker. I guess I thought of it as affecting a person’s fluency altogether, no matter how many languages the person speaks. How common is it for a bilingual person to experience stuttering in only one language? Is it more common for the stuttering to occur in both languages?
