I must admit I have no deep knowledge of stuttering, but I always thought it was a psychological thing. So if you teach someone a sign language, will they continue stuttering? On the same note, are there native sign language speakers who stutter?

    I imagine that a failure of connection between brain and hands is possible though. We wouldn’t call it “stutter” normally (it would probably surface as some kind of tremors), but effectively it would be a sign language alternative to stuttering.
