Palavuzlar | It has multiple meanings as you said, but I heard it's used in cases when you lose your voice because of shouting, etc. One of its meanings is any temporary physical difficulty in speaking. I won't delete my answer as it's an alternative answer to the question. Anyway, thanks for your supplement. | |

(It's even "often regarded as a sign of fear".) AFAIK it doesn't even necessarily mean you're unable to speak, only that you're speaking very hoarsely and with difficulty. | |
