Talking through the Nose

Q. How can the habit of "talking through the nose" be overcome?

A. Of course, no one talks through the nose. The peculiar style of talking to which this term has been applied, is due to obstruction of the nostrils, so that it is really talking without the nose instead of through the nose. It is not merely a habit; it is generally due to disease. The rem­edy is to be found in removing the obstruction from the nose. The obstruction may consist of polypi or other growths, or a mere thickening of the mucous membrane. A good specialist should be consulted.
