If You Have A Lisp You Can't Tell Anyone / myLot

Oh, the injustice! So, if you have a lisp, the problem is, if you HAVE a lisp, and someone asks you about your ailment... You cannot PRONOUNCE the word LISP! So, whose bright idea was it to decide that they would assign a word to condition to a person whose condition they could not actually pronounce? This seems like a problem. What say you?

I get you. This is quite interesting I have no idea who gave the word. You cannot even pronounce what you are suffering from

It's a conundrum to be sure.

To tell the truth, this is not a problem I've ever pondered. I haven't had a lisp for about seventy years and I've never asked anyone who had one what condition they had.
