lisp
This term describes a specific phonetic substitution where sibilants are replaced by dental fricatives. It often carries a connotation of childhood innocence or vulnerability, though in adult contexts, it may be associated with nervousness or a permanent speech impediment.
As a noun, the word is typically used with adjectives like slight, heavy, or pronounced to indicate the severity of the speech pattern. When used as a verb, it describes the active process of speaking with this specific articulation error.
