there are equivalents for “uh” and “um” in different languages, right?
it’d be cool if those were universal things. like you could go back in time and overhear a caveman going like, “[grunt grunt] uh, [grunt]”

In Quebec (read: low-rent) French, at least, there’s “jar”. Soft j, accented r. It’s weird and I hate it.

It’s “euh” (pronounced kind of like a nasalized ‘uh’) in French.

once had a Spanish French sub whose “um” was “em” except each one lasted like ten seconds. that’s all I can remember about that sad man.
