- Language Learning
You can use them to buy time, while away time, and pretend you’re having a conversation even when you don’t want to. Fillers—quite literally—fill in for you in conversations almost all the time.
In this episode, we speak to a number of people to find out what particular filler word is their all-time favourite and how they make use of fillers when faced with controversial topics, questions whose answers they know nothing about, and conversations they’d like to keep away from or merely play spectators to.
Please note: I conducted several telephonic interviews for this episode. Consequently, the audio for this episode might sound a bit uneven. You may want to begin listening at relatively lower sound levels; you may also want to adjust the sound levels from time to time.
