Hedges and Crutches

By: Rebecca McInroy

Building in hedges to a sentence is a natural thing most of us do without thinking too much about it, but when we can’t form a sentence without “really” or “like ya know” it might be time to take a pause. That said, as we explore in this episode of Two Guys on Your Head, with Dr. Art Markman, and Dr. Bob Duke, these hedges and crutches serve a communicative purpose.
