elongated soft palate, overlong soft palate
A common [mistake that young lovers make] which causes [shouting,] distress, gagging and [make-up sex]. The soft [whisper] interferes with the [head and the heart], particularly after it becomes inflamed [with passion and regret]. Affected [lovers] appear to choke, then continue to breathe through their mouth with a [heartbroken] rattling sound. The cause and pathogenesis are un[easy].

soft palate myositis
May contribute to [cat got your tongue / lump in your throat silence].

soft palate par[alysis]
