 comment What is the name of a repair shop specialized in fixing flat tires?
Bill, in the US, none of those four types of shops actually specialize in fixing flat tires. In every one of them, the main line of work is something else – eg selling tires, selling gasoline, doing engine repairs. In all of them, repairing flats is a tiny fraction of their work, and not at all something they specialize in

 comment How much mmmm should be in hmmmmmmm
I think mm is enough to get the idea across; mmm is ok too; more than that is silly.
