over-pronouncing "s"

[MKR&*42]

I've had this thing for a while where I always hold the letter 's' for too long in certain words and I can't figure out if it's a lisp or what. For example, if I say the word "dance" (practically make the s sound in it) the s continues until after the end of the word so it looks like I'm saying "dansss". It's worse if I have to say a word filled with s sounds - e.g. "solicitors" has a continuous s sound throughout the entire word for me.

I don't know if this is normal as I've never particularly paid attention to how anyone says dance or similar words, but I know I definitely over pronounce with solicitors and I'm genuinely unsure how to stop it :S

Tara you're so cruel

[lawrawrrr]

hahahahahahahahahah

i tend to over 's' as well, it's just a dialect thing though and it's never really affected me much (now i'm extremely conscious of it though, THANKS )

how bad is it? can you record it

does anyone else notice

like do people call it out because otherwise i wouldnt even bother about trying to stop it

If it's a word like "solicitors" where I have to make the s sound more than once then people usually do ask me to repeat myself and a few do pick up on it. The rest probably won't due to either not noticing or simple politeness

Do you have perfect teeth?

A guy at work was a sizzler and it was due to his teeth being all weird. Got them corrected with braces and now sounds normal (aside from the yorkshire accent)
