word whisker

A word or short phrase used as a verbal crutch when speaking, like "um", "uh", "er", "like", "y'know", etc. They also allow one to pause to consider one's next words without breaking the flow of a delivery.

Word whiskers are a nearly universal phenomenon in extemporaneous speech. Because they can convey uncertainty, create verbal clutter, and can cloud meaning, eliminating word whiskers is a common element of training for public speaking.

Word whiskers are synonymous with "filler words".
