PSA if somebody didn’t understand what you said, repeat it in the exact same speed and tone. Don’t pronounce it slower or more clearly, and certainly don’t paraphrase.
also pro tip get mad at them for not understanding you after the second time. They are doing it on purpose
/s in case it’s not clear

I actually am hard of hearing so this hits especially close to home

Don’t pronounce it slower or more clearly, and certainly don’t paraphrase. This, but for real. I just missed one word and don’t need you to confuse the issue by adding in extra variables

To save time, I’ll just repeat the last couple words.
