//大家有沒有留意到，很多人，即使是native speakers，說名詞之前都會停頓多一點，多一點 “uh” 和 “um”？研究發現，原來使用名詞是比起其他詞性的字彙更耗費腦力的！//
‘When we speak, we unconsciously pronounce some words more slowly than others and sometimes pause. Such slowdown effects provide key evidence for human cognitive processes, reflecting increased planning load in speech production.’ A gap between words, or having to result to filler words (such as uh or um), literally suggests certain words tax our mental faculties more than others.
And which words were those? Nouns (“a person place or thing,” as per Schoolhouse Rock), as opposed to verbs (which tell us “what’s happening”). Across languages and cultures, speakers universally slowed down before uttering nouns, and only one of the nine languages showed any slowdown before verbs, despite these often being more complex than nouns.”
