I'd like to know what the difference is between a stutterer and someone who has a speech impediment.

A person with a speech impediment may have difficulty producing certain sounds, such as “r” or “l,” due to physical limitations of their vocal tract. A stutterer, on the other hand, typically experiences involuntary disruptions in the flow of speech that are caused by psychological factors. Stuttering can occur at any age but tends to be more common in children and teenagers.
