Article: Sometimes morning sickness can cause taste sensitivity during pregnancy. If you find yourself being sensitive to your normal toothpaste, try a blander one. Ask your dentist for recommendations for the best bland toothpastes during pregnancy. Because of the acidity in stomach acid, it is really important to delay brushing teeth immediately after vomiting. The stomach acid is really damaging to your enamel. Rather wait and brush your teeth at your normal times. If you vomit and you want to wash out your mouth, use baking soda and water, as this won’t damage the enamel. It will also help get rid of the taste of vomit. Also, drinking a combination of baking soda and water can help ease the nausea. If you don't like the taste of baking soda, you can also use mouthwash. This will help your mouth feel cleaner and will help remove acid from your mouth. If you have a particularly sensitive gag reflex, you may want to wait until the nausea subsides before scraping the back of your tongue.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Use bland toothpastes. Don’t brush immediately after morning sickness. Rinse with baking soda and water after morning sickness. Use a tongue cleaner to remove acid after morning sickness.
Article: Start by cleaning off any dirt or surface debris on the stump with a cloth. Rub the wood grain in a gentle, circular motion on the top and bottom, where the stump has been cut. Do not wipe the bark with the cloth, as this can cause the bark to flake or fall off. Use your hands to gently pull off any wood that is flaking off of the stump, especially on areas with bark. Make sure you take off any twigs, bugs, or leaves on the stump. Removing the bark is up to you, as you can keep it on if there is not a black ring between the bark and the wood, and if the bark does not appear too dry. Use a rotary hammer to remove the bark, sliding it from the top to the bottom of the stump. The bark should peel off easily, leaving you with just wood around the stump. Leaving the bark on will give the stump a more rustic look. If you remove it, you will need to sand down the sides of the stump.

Wipe the top and bottom of the stump with a wet cloth. Remove any flaking wood or bark on the stump. Take off the bark if it appears dead or dry.
Article: Enunciate well, and focus on clarity. Speaking louder doesn't make you more understandable. Consider this an opportunity to work on your clarity of speech. If they say the word "gigantic," then they probably also know what "enormous" and "huge" mean. If they speak using basic words, then it's probably best to use the smallest words you know. If they use words like "fortuitously" and "systematic bias," then their disability probably isn't intellectual. If the person seems to struggle understanding speech, keep your sentences short and clear. Use simple subject-verb-object statements when you can.  This is good practice in general too. Non-disabled people don't enjoy wading through extremely long sentences either. If the person is hard of hearing or struggles to process speech, they may want to watch you as you pronounce your words. This helps them figure out what you are saying in many cases. Avoid turning away as you speak, covering your mouth, or speaking with your mouth full.  It can also be helpful to talk in quieter places, with fewer distractions, especially if the person seems bothered by environmental noises. For example, the question "Do-ya wanna eat-a pizza?" may be difficult for them to understand. One of the biggest challenges for listeners is knowing where one word ends and the next one begins. If they seem to be struggling, slow down the pace a little, giving a slight pause between each word. There's no need to use baby talk, or mimic their disability accent. (No, it won't help them understand you better, but it may make them think you're mocking them.) Talk to them with the same tone that you'd use for a non-disabled person their age. Baby talk may be appropriate for a disabled 3-year-old, but not a disabled 13-year-old or 33-year-old.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Speak calmly, clearly, and with a moderate volume. Model your vocabulary usage after theirs. Keep your sentences short and clear, if needed. Let them see your mouth if they can't understand you well. Avoid running words together if it confuses them. Use your normal pitch and tone.
