"Um" seems to be used as a placeholder for when the person is thinking of what to say, and "like" is sort of like a placeholder, but I'm not sure how to describe it exactly. But we've all heard it: someone's talking and they're saying like every 10th word.
I'm wondering:
Do other languages have equivalents to those two words?
Is there a term for those types of words?
In the other languages, is their version of "like" a direct translation of "like", or is it something else?
Thanks
