“…A number of studies have been completed examining disfluencies and stuttering in monolingual and /or bilingual speakers who speak languages other than English, including German (e.g., Dworzynski, Howell, Au-Yeung, & Rommel, 2004;Dworzynski, Howell, & Natke, 2003;Natke, Sandrieser, Pietrowsky, & Kalveram, 2006), Dutch (e.g., Boey et al, 2007), Mandarin (e.g., Lim, Lincoln, Chan, & Onslow, 2008), Ga (Kirk, 1977), Igbo (Nwokah, 1988), Maltese (Agius, 1995), and Portuguese (e.g., Juste & de Andrade, 2006). Reports describing stuttering in Spanish speakers, on the other hand, remain relatively few-particularly in light of the growing number of Spanish speakers in the United States (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 2008).…”
