Speech impairment causing involuntary repetition (7)

I believe the answer is:

stammer

(Other definitions for stammer that I've seen before include "Psychological speech problem" , "Speak with difficulty" , "delivery issue" , "Speak with repetition" , "Speak with common speech impediment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
