Research involving a multilingual person who clutters and stutters in African languages is limited. The aim of this study was to describe the dysfluencies of a multilingual person with dysfluencies (PWD) across and within Sepedi, Afrikaans, and South African English (SAE). A single multilingual adult participant with an advanced and persistent mild stuttering and moderate cluttering pattern participated in this current study. A mixed-method cross-sectional design was implemented. Perceptual analysis was used to study stuttering-like dysfluencies (SLD) and cluttering-like dysfluencies (CLD) across and within the three languages. The results revealed that the most prevalent SLD in all three languages was the repetition of part words. The repetition of whole words was the most prevalent CLD. The plosive /d/ sound represented the highest occurrence and resulted in repetitions of sounds across and within Afrikaans and SAE. There were no repetitions of sounds in Sepedi, but three repetitions of the syllable /se-/ occurred. Future research is recommended on a bigger sample size, and the investigation of other African languages should be considered.
